I thought I had finally found a healthy drink I liked with no artificial sweetness and they had to go and fuck it up

      Yes? Because every time we bring back a bag of bottles, we get about 10€. Would you rather throw out the 10€?

        I also return mine but most people around me don’t seem to. You can often find them littering the streets or walkways or even out in the woods unfortunately.

          Here in California we have high deposits and I never see cans left unattended for long. $0.05 is nothing in this economy.

      Don’t know about other places with a deposit system, but in Finland 98% of aluminium cans are recycled. Seems to work pretty well

      I’m lazy enough and a frequent enough soft drink & beer consumer that by the time I take it in, it’s at least 10€, but can be 20€ or more. I have also gotten over 100€ but that was cheating, it was from previous year’s summer solstice celebrations. And like the commenter above you, it’s the same price for me, 10 cents a bottle or can. Mostly because we apparently live in the same country.
