I want to empty some beer bottles.
I have close to $400 worth of empties. I'm using all the money on Christmas so basically all we are paying out of pocket is for mine & Jim's present and the kids.
Do you guys have 'deposits' up there?
Ours in Michigan is 10 cents.
I don't think I have room to store $400 worth of empties.

I like it when I have $10 worth.
I think the stores I go to have a limit as to how many you can return at once.

There are no stores here that sell beer. You have to go through the beer vender which are attached to bars. I think the Liquor Mart sells beer but doesn't accept the empties for returns.

All the grocery stores around here have those automated machines, so I have to stand there and put them in one at a time.
Glass in one machine, cans and plastic in another.
I'm ready to go.
There is a BWW down the street that's calling my name.

Here you take them to the vender in special flats or back into the original box and then the chick/dude running the vender just gives you the cash after they count how many you bring in.
I have to go sometime though, Jim's ticket needs to get paid.

This is the room where I keep all my beer empties. All the bags are the cans, the boxes are filled with beer bottles organized by beer make. Dark colored bottles don't have to be organized but any other brand does...
These are the bottles and cans that I picked up just today. I have another box of glass beer empties in the back of my truck that I haven't taken out yet

I'm sure you did. Jim and Eric (our friend who tags along with Jim everywhere who we are partners with in the gravel pit) were driving in Eric's truck along with our son, they ended up getting pulled over. Jim got a failure to wear a seatbelt ticket as a passenger in a vehicle. $295. It could have been worse though because Mike wasn't in a car seat and the cop just told them to get where they were going and stay there until a car seat was delivered. The ticket for the car seat would have been another $500+.

The last time I got a seatbelt ticket, it was $60, and I was driving.

I've only been pulled over once, it was for speeding but I got out of it because I was driving in a large group of vehicles (6-10 cars) in the left lane. The cop turned its lights on but it wasn't clear who he was pulling over. I had to speed up, cut a truck off then pulled over. I told the judge "How do we know for sure who he was intending to pull over, perhaps I was just the retarded one who pulled over"

Did you really say "retarded" to a judge?
