Yes those re-turn machines, I assume the government keeps the extra deposit costs from non returns, was these machines an idea of The Green Party?
I know a few who are not returning any bottles or cans just using their home recycling bins
If you do not return your bottles and cans, you will not get your deposit back, which does not seem like a great idea. The other aspect is that you do not have to worry about recycling it if you return it. Kind of a carrot and stick approach.
