Free parking vouchers from local traders

If we wish to encourage visits to local traders, why don’t we have a system (as is practiced at Budgens in Holt) where part or all of the cost of the parking ticket for, say, one or two hours, can be redeemed at local shops, restaurants, etc. on presentation of a duplicate of the machine-generated parking ticket?
