It's tuesday, where are you people

I do the aluminum can thing on the regular. Can crusher in the garage and a garbage tote holds around 80 lbs. Total payout last year was just short of $500

So it’s your hobby and you make your wife partake.

GF, and I will strongly encourage her to partake in this task. It's a matter of choosing one bin over the other.

Do you take the 80 lb bags of cans to a recycling center or a grocery store?

If Illinois is anything like Ohio, very few (if any anymore) grocery stores have can recycling

When I was growing up in North Dakota my parents recycled cans and took them in for the cash. I think it was a specific recycling center. I don't recall the grocery stores having anything like that. They definitely don't have those at the grocery stores here in MN.

MI still has them. I don’t go anywhere near them. They’re like concentration camps that reek of stale beer.

Recycling center. Usually a tote of crushed and 5-6 lawn bags uncrushed. Fills the back of the pickup. I collect from family and a few friends. Paid for a Montana fly fishing trip a few years ago that way. Saved for 2 years. Bought an acoustic guitar this year.

I remember one grocery store (an IGA) in the nearest town had one growing up. I haven't seen one in my adult life, though.

Once we get our pole barn built in the spring, I'll have my spot for composting. We'll be down to probably 30% trash and 70% recyclable/compostable material.

I get lazy with the composting in the winter. We still only have 2 bags of trash each week.

I do get lazy with the recycling at Christmas. I just have a bag out that the wrapping paper goes into, and that gets thrown out. Might look into keeping a box aside just to hold paper next year and put that out with recycling.

Yes, cause you guys have a deposit or whatever it's called on them

To be fair, though, wrapping paper has so much shit on it, that recycling probably isn't doing much

Huge sections of store walled off with some weird heavy rubber walls, with sticky floors and putrid smelling bags of cans and plastic bottles everywhere. Zombies standing in line punching one can after another into tiny holes while fruit flies fly all over them. Gross as shit. Unhealthy as shit and prob still open during Covid. I wouldn’t know.

Hate tomatoes, onions, and mushrooms.

Had 2 mayo and bacon sammiches on toasted bread.

Thanks for the update.

You have no tastebuds so you might as well save money by eating dirt or horseshit.

I won’t judge you if you don’t judge me.

Our recycling center requests we don't recycle wrapping paper because a lot of it has foil, glitter, and plastics that can't be recycled. And even the stuff that can be apparently doesn't go through the sorting machines very well.

Throw it in the trash. The beavers can make Christmas dams.
