  • Most bottles you've returned at one time?

    We like to return our bottles every 6 months or so. First was 900 something. Last time was 500 something. This time we hit the 1000 club with about 1100 or so. Took 2 cars to haul these bad boys








    So whats the most you've returned at one time? I've heard of people hauling in 2 or 3 thousand and I just don't know how they do it

    Not sure how many it was but I remember getting close to $400 just from bringing in bottles

    2 small trucks full

    yay for never bringing bottles in for like a year and some
    Sideways is the best ways.

      I once saved my empties for like a year and a half, it filled up 3 full size truck loads and I got $850, this was back when a can was only 5 cents. Happy new years, never thought I'd spend one sitting in front of a computer....

        The beer I drink gives me back 20 cents per can. Pretty sick. I normally save my cans for the girl guides or scouts or fundraisers so I don't know how much.

        The Brewhouse and bud light lime in there is a discrace to the meaning of a good beer :P That's like TNT, Wildcat, lucky lager or simply coolers lol. When a 24 costs (I don't remember what I saw it for) $15 or something? that can't be a good thing. Then again, I drink $11 4 packs lol.

          Don't ever diss Lucky Lager. I love that beer like I love my car. When I was single, living with a bunch of buddies, we paid for this kids dirt bike with our empties. Every sunday he would come by to collect our empties, that kid was a real go getter. Just remember, for every 11 dollar 4 pack of chick pop you drink, that could be going towards something way better ( parts, upgrades etc.).

            Sorry, you're right, to all their own for taste. I drank cheap beer when I was out to get drunk and couldn't afford much else for the same volume. Guiness (including kilkenny) was always the one for me. I got hooked on Innis n Gunn this year and those are $3.40 or something each at the super store liquor lol but that's one full flavor beer. Anyways, I've had too many bad drunken nights to care for most drunk for the buck. I strongly encourage trying Innis N Gunn.

            We used to have a Fog and Suds bar here that sold all sorts of beers which I spent many week ends at trying all, though the company closed their doors 6 months later. I miss pubs like that. Winston's in saskatoon is awesome, much like Sherlock holme's in Edmonton.

              I understand where you are comming from, but I really do love lucky lager. It is my favourite beer, whether to go and get wasted or to have a beer or two after work. I think it is a smooth easy drinking mans beer and i thank the gods that is is cheaper than the rest of the swill out there. But you are right, to each his own. Happy new year and I look forward to hopefully meeting somewhere next season.

                    i've never kept more than $10 worth of bottles for recycling, the kids always take it.

                    As for beer, its Bud for the everyday stuff and MDG for the times when I want a treat. I don't care what people say, there's a reason that bud is a popular, simple, cheaper beer....its just damn good.

                      yeah but when you need to purchase more of it, it costs more and tastes like someone backwashed it after smoking. I thought you liked name-brand **** that are quality.

                      garbage


                      I'm enjoying a few sleeman with granville island before bed. mmmm.

                        ^ touche'! (To set the record, I am picky about some things, but skimpy on others ie, I can't stand replica seats or wheels, but I honestly could care less about replica gauges...the good quality ones. I'm a Hypocrite)

                        MDG does give a slightly strange taste after about 6-8, its not the most appealing. I've tried all the expensive beers and they don't quite do it for me. Granville Island is about the only Micro-brew I like....but that may be from the fact that i've only bought it in a keg from the brewery.

                        And I shall correct myself, if i feel like treating myself I go to the singles and get a Russian beer called Baltika, I really recommend it.

                          one morning after a huge kicker at my place we were all just getting up and in the living room and someone knocks on the door and its the kids going around looking to collect bottles for some grad bs so we had them come in and told them they could have all the cans and bottles they could find in the house and they cleaned all the empties up then we directed them to the mother load out back in the shed... as soon as i opened the door they stood there in awe and silence 15 large garbage bags full and tons of boxes of bottles... took them 2 trips to do our house and it was really easy to clean the house up after that... they made a killing...

                            Yeah I love my Desmond Marquis. So light and strong, the other day I saw a ROTA version o it, lol you could tell right away it was cast/faker.




                            It's MGD for Miller Genuine Draft I believe, MDG is some computer company, get it right


                            I go with beer that match the occasion. Kokanee or pilsner/PBR are not the "best" but are much better than shitty beer like Bud/Budlite/Coors/Labatt Blue. They go well in summer with campfires mmmm I miss summer.

                            I drink all but I wouldn't pay for shitty watered down, no flavoured excuse of beer. Eastern Europe Beer is good most of the time. American beer suck, but they are cheap.

                              Finally got my wife hooked on Saporo lol. She normally hates the beer I drink. MGD 64 is tough to find. Sleeman's honey brown is one of my favorite N/A beers. American beers are too "soft drink" like, too fizzy and weak. La maudite/fin du monde are good for occasions like new years but aren't the best tasting for beer, more like champagne like beer.

                              Anyone try Harp? I'm always looking for it. It's one of Guiness' lighter beers.

                              How bout, Tetley's cream ale?
