Do I just go into my local pub and ask for one from them??? :confused:
My piggybank is getting squished full of coppers and I would love to see a big bottle in the corner of my flat getting filled!!!!

    Hi :)

    I got mine from the charity I used to work for. We had a charity shop and I bought one for myself and my brother.

    Also my sister got hers from a carboot. You could ask the local pub but i am not sure where they stand with stuff like that now. But asking cant hurt :)

    Hover by a bottle bank on a Sunday morning. Or if your Council recycles glass wait till collection day then if you spot one knock on the owners door and ask politely.
    Find out who you are and do that on purpose (thanks to Owain Wyn Jones quoting Dolly Parton)

    :rotfl: It's a VERY large bottle though - you'd have more than a hangover if you drunk all 4.5litres! :eek: :rotfl:
