Not with my family. We saved newspapers, tin cans (with the labels removed, and stomped down flat), and wine/liquor bottles and took them to the recycling depot every couple of weeks. Pop bottles (remember the old heavy glass 750mL ones?), as with beer bottles* and cans, were returned for the deposit. Aloha, Brad * I heard that back in the days when all the breweries used the same "stubby" bottle, Ontario had something like 98% of beer bottles returned for reuse, which was the envy of other beer markets.
