[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 460895, member: 21536"] Now that you mention I suspect they are not likely to have redemption value in most states. Even in CA, you can't return the bottles to the place you bought them. You have to take them to a recycle center and a lot of those have closed down. Nearest one to me is 9 miles and I doubt that the majority of my neighbors would even know where it is. For a lot of people even at 5 cents per plastic bottle it is just too inconvenient to take them in for redemption. For me the trip to the recycle place is like a free haircut every once in a while. BTW, I have 9 of the small plastic water bottles in my freezer. I toss them in the ice chest when I'm heading out and back into the freezer when I get home. Kind of like big reusable ice cubes.
