:’) There was no bottle bill in Michigan until the late 1960s or so; prior to that time each brand distributor put deposits on the bottles (all glass) which were (usually) returned, washed, refilled, and sold again. When the plastic one-way bottles were first tried, it was cheaper to buy the glass and throw tthem out than it was to get the disposables. :’D

Thanks

So glad I could inspire you to take the time and
make the effort to respond to my post. It was
encouraging.

My bro’ and I got 3 cents for empty pop bottles in Elk City, OK.
Then it was off to the little food market for Hostess cupcakes & snowballs (12 cents).
And then we hunted little dinosaurs .. . no not really.

Beer bottles weren’t worth anything so I used them for target practice, shooting my Daisy BB gun behind an old honkytonk right off old route 66.

I got pretty good, but had to keep one eye out for the owner. He had a pistol Mexican carry in his waistband, but I figured he might run me off but wouldn’t shoot me.

Frankly, I would have preferred finding the mates to generations of *lost sox* ;D

Did't you know? The fifth ring of Saturn is made of left sox. . . and the seven ring is right sox. . . it's much smaller because fewer right sox are lost than left sox.
