The Pfand (bottle refund) system is very much a part of everyday life in Germany; people are obsessive about returning bottles at supermarkets, and some have made bottle collecting their livelihood. An avid Pfand-system user myself, I caught myself wondering for a split second where I should return the bottle.
But...how will they RECYCLE????????
