The last pick up round they said to leave your cans out by 10am on Saturday. We put them out Friday night because we were going away for the weekend and when we came home on Sunday they were still there.
We've been hanging onto garbage bags full of empties all summer for "bottle drives" that never grab out bottles. At least the bottle pickers in the alley show some hustle.

Because money comes easily these days. I see junior high kids hanging out at the Starbucks.
What could you afford when you were in Grade 8?
And it's our fault, we're the parents.
