How much is the milk is in your carton & how much is packaging & transport into the supermarket system?
in my local supermarket (Booths, self-proclaimed Waitrose of the North);
two pints of semi-skimmed this week was £1.35;
four pints, £1.65.
which might suggest (very roughly) £1 of every milk cartoon sold in the store is accounted for by transport & processing as opposed to 15p per pint of milk.
I know its not quite as simple as that... but striking nonetheless
