In NY, I've only seen machinese that crush cans/bottles for you, but it needs to scan the barcode or it won't accept it. It won't accept it if it doesn't have ny listed on the packaging to be recycled. Some stores won't accept brands of bottles they do not sell, I don't know if they still do that. Ny charges 5¢ deposit on cans and bottles, which you get back after you recycle.
So every single can/bottle that is returned for recycling/deposit needs to be scanned first?....That's wild! lol
How does that work when someone brings in like a dozen big trash bags full of cans & bottles?...There would be thousands of cans to scan, does each can need to be scanned one by one or do they have some sort or machine/process that will scan them super rapidly?
Here in Cali we too have a 5 cent to 10 cent deposit on cans that one gets back, but the places here weigh the cans instead of scanning each individual can. We just bring bags of cans (or bottles) to the place and they get dumped into a large machine that weighs them and crushes/compacts them down. It doesn't matter what condition the cans are in.

There is a 12$ limit (240 bottles/cans), but I just cash them at different cashiers. I would save up a few months worth and redeem them all at once. I'll spend maybe 2 hours and come out with 40-50$. The supermarkets usually only have 1 can, 1 glass bottle, and 2 plastic bottle machines. So there are times where you have to wait till the person in front of you is done.

Save them cans, y'all. Insulin is expensive.

with diet modifications type 2's can get off insulin, and types 1's can get down to an incredibly small amount, I think I heard Canada covers insulin cost now, and while I think thats great for type 1's if its true, I think its bad for type 2's incentive to change there diet
