quote=Kerfuffle;17649021]Hey there,

not much roadkill to be had in my area at the moment, I'm just waiting for the big thaw, I think it's due around March time, lol.

Likewise with any drinks cans and bottles that I find that I could cash in and get the deposits back on, they're all under 3 ft of snow as well so I'm relying on family members to leave money lying around.

Toodles.

:hello: Do you really get cash back for drink cans Wow I could be rich !!! Quote

Hi luckycharlie, yep we get cash back on recycled drinks cans and bottles, like we used to do in the UK in the olden days. We have to pay a deposit and a recycling fee and then we get the deposit back, the government keeps the recycling fee, don't they always! I don't actually buy many drinks in cans and bottles but I do collect ones that other people have discarded, it's a real bonus pocketing the money when you know you haven't paid it out in the first place.:D

Toodles.:wave:

Kerfuffle

:hello: And hello again,

It's been pretty quiet here today as I haven't been out so I've had another NSD, so no roadkill again.

I am however, pilfering the little bit of cash my daughter left out the other day as I think 24 hours is long enough before I stake a claim. Desparate times means desparate measures,:rotfl:

Hope everyone is ok,

Toodles.:wave:

Evening all (oops! that should be morning!) :hello:

A fair few pennies in the pot today and yesterday. Maybe £10 in total.:T

I went to the Boots sale, but used points so am feeling fairly pleased with myself.

2p roadkill today too. Of to bed now catch you all soon.:beer:
