I stand corrected. SA is the only state that does though, pretty lame.

What?

i think taking beer bottles back in Canada is different then in the states. Over here we get compensated quite well and its every day practice that when you go to the beer store (which is government operated) to bring back the empties to get money off your next purchase


Posted by Trance Nutter on Jul-07-2010 02:55:

Yeah I noticed in Germany as well you can just take the empties to the bottle shop (or corner shop for that matter) and get the money.

Here you have to take them to recycling depots. There's a few around so its not like an imposition, but its not as convenient as just going to the bottle shop.

In the USA its a pain. 5 cents for a lot of trouble. if the store didn't sell that brand they won't take it. waiting behind homeless/alcoholics who have hundreds of bottles. recycling machines are often broken or full. as a matter of fact this just happened at the supermarket. i just left the shit for someone else instead of dragging it back to my place and make another trip to waste more of my time.

God is punishing you for drinking Labatt Blue


Posted by WittyHandle on Jul-07-2010 03:49:

Yep. Labatt Blue Light is way better. I saw Labatt Blue Light Lime, but it's not in my area


Posted by Cloudburst on Jul-07-2010 05:05:

You take them to the store here.

You get 10-20 cents for cans, 10 cents for bottles, 20 cents for plastic bottles and 40 cents for "hard" plastic bottles.

Damn, I remember my parents being able to take bottles back when I was like 5 years old. Wish I could've cashed in on that in my beer-drinking days.

in canada they have to take the bottles no matter where they were sold as a matter of law.

a nation of alcoholics has dictated this.

0.33l bottles are for pussies


Posted by ChrisWChandler on Jul-07-2010 16:21:

Amazed by the reaction of people in this thread to the idea of getting money back for just returning bottles.

People, you pay that money extra when you buy the bottles, by returning you are just getting your deposit back.

Cartons?

WTF? Like wine in a box or smaller tetra-pak style juice boxes for kids?

Don't be too upset though BTG - it was only Labatt Blue

nah, I think the 600mL take-away flavoured milk cartons carry a deposit (flavoured milk is big business here). I'm not sure though, I tend not to buy that size.

The 2L cartons of the same drinks or fruit juices don't have a deposit though, so maybe the small cartons don't, can't remember for sure now.
