Maybe that works if you have the infrastructure set up for that workflow.
The way that it worked for us, was we saved up a year's worth of bottles and cans in the basement in 55 gallon barrels, then we took them to the local redemption place attached to the general store, where one of the high school kids that attended the full-service pumps would go sort them, which took an hour or so. If it was a good year, it paid for a few rides and some french fries at the county fair.
- Aachen 5y agoI don't understand. What infrastructure do you need to setup for that workflow? Instead of having someone spend an hour on a year's worth of bottles, you could hand them five bottles that you used since the previous store visit and get your dollar in thirty seconds.
- thrower123 5y agoI don't recall that they'd bother sorting for you unless you had at least $10 worth. Machines did not exist and are still rare.
- Aachen 5y agoOh, okay that's interesting. Now I get what you mean with infrastructure. Thanks!
