Hää sense ? I know so many people who earn very very good money every month live frugally and still don't leave a Deposit when they see it just as many do so surveys online why not take money with you if you have the opportunity and can do it on the side

That's the way it is. And above all, I was mainly annoyed by the casino offers with Freecash. I myself always play without a bonus, but how many players claim Bonuses from casinos? We're all gamblers here and what player wouldn't take up the offer - deposit €50 and get €100 in cash as a gift. And that's exactly what casino offers are all about. If that doesn't work, or only rarely, then of course you get annoyed.


If a supermarket offered you to buy something for €50 and get €100 in cash in return, everyone would probably take it.

I only recently started playing the app games, but purely as a pastime and not as a source of money. But of course people are happy to do that too. How many people download app games without getting anything in return? If that doesn't work properly, then it's a matter of principle for me. I generally don't like it when someone doesn't stick to agreements. It doesn't matter whether it's a company or a private individual.

And when I realize that there's a system behind it, then I think it's even more perfidious. Above all, there will certainly be some people who are actually dependent on it and who have too little money left over at the end of the month and could make good use of the €50 from Freecash. They then play such a stupid game for a month and end up empty-handed. And strangely enough, these companies seem to operate in a legal vacuum.

But anyway, I don't want to expand the topic any further. Everything has already been said about this several times anyway.

But the question is, shouldn't the Deposit on the street be left to the poorer people? I once found a bottle and a grandma asked me if she could have it. Of course I was stubborn and wanted to keep it myself. In hindsight, that was stupid of me. Okay, I didn't gamble back then. But today, well, what's 8 cents? And grandma would have been happy. Normally I would have had to give her even more.

But please don't talk politics about it

Sure, but if you look at where some bottles are where no one ever finds them, then you can take them with you to help the environment and 25 cents is 25 cents after all


Of course, if you have the opportunity and these are places where the collectors go at night, then leave them well positioned

That reminds me, I once had to go out and there were 3 Deposit cans in the deepest forest right at that spot.


But nowadays people who have money also collect deposits. It's hard to tell the difference.

in other countries, they are only reimbursed for the value of the material

the only sensible thing the greens (Trittin is the man's name) have done so far. Thanks for that (pensioners or the environment?)

why in god's name is this not being introduced worldwide? in view of the microplastic problem

the world is so f**ked up

yes, but apparently the 25 cent Deposit is still not enough if all the young people are throwing their energy cans everywhere.


Recently there was even one in front of the Penny entrance. Or 2 boys wanted to throw them in the garbage can in front of the Rewe, so I asked if I could have them .

Inflation. When the deposit was introduced, 25 cents was already a lot. I remember that you could buy 1.5 liters of iced tea for a few cents (89 cents or so) at Schlecker. That was in 2007 or so, years later.

For 25 cents at the vending machine and then queuing at the till again, it's just not worth it because you can't buy anything with it.
