I never remember having that in the UK. You must be old

just playing, could have been around when I was young but never knew of it.
I quite like the deposit system though. I'm in NB Canada, certain cans are 5c or 10c deposit here, but 20c deposit in quebec. Could make a nice little earner off them.
But anyway,
It's almost like a bonus taking them back, some neighbours even use them for charitable causes, like after xmas they come round and take anyone's empties and put them into a fund for anyone who needs emergency treatment or whatever that can't afford it.
As for the making a bit extra taking them elsewhere, I say fuck it why not!
