I have noted driving through parts of New England especially upstate NY, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine, many utilize the honor system. I have discussed with several vendors how much thievery goes on. Amazingly they report very little. There are still a few "honor systems" in the Carolinas but do not see as much as 20-25 years ago. Other Carolinians may be able to provide additional insight.
Only you know and understand your market the best. It is a judgment call but if you trust the neighbor who assists you, I would try to use her services during your busy periods...Good Luck!
