Got 12 today for total of 140
So in one calendar month I got 140
With "collections" everyday

And here's the juicy stuff people read my threads for

I also discovered

1. Not every coffeeshop collects the 10 cents from customers
Unlike what's said here

I seen someone lugging tons of pristine bottles and cans to claim

Its a lot
Didn't ask him is it 1 day's takings

Anyway its just extra work for the staff and the coffeeshop doesn't make money from this.
Its just to ensure they don't pay extra 10 cents per can
So might as well charge the 10 cents and get rid of extra work

2. Those machines in supermarkets are cleaned by their staff
Guess the company rents space from supermarkets and its extra work for workers to clean the thing

So who makes from machine stored at void decks? The TC? And cleaners clean it too?

Saw them lugged out all the crushed cans etc in big bag from machine
Don't know what they do with it
Just throw in dustbin?
I don't even know if someone counts the crushed can
Guess more avenue for.fraud

HERE'S a way to make money ILLEGALLY
Not going to elaborate but guess.the foreigner.illegal gangs can do it and run off
Or since jail is nothing to them , just keep doing it till they get busted
a nation of karang gunis..

Damn gross.

Xhs have people post say they earned $1000+ a month doing this, so average 350+ cans a day

Last time, I cycle and kio cans around the neighbourhood only about 100 Max for 6 hrs of "work".
Without coffee shop supply, I dun thin can hit pass 200.

this kind of stupid lumbar news to push for mass adoption can only lead to stupid gullible lao lang and boomer going around scalping for plastic bottles, possibly fighting over it.

Basically its collecting cardboard boxes in another form.

Got notice this is the 2nd such news since the $1k news ? Want to find justification for their stupid machine tio boh ?
already got boomer shaking my can drink at hawker center, very annoying.
