Even auntie like my mom also said she rather throw altogether into recycle bin cos too mafan n her hse too small to split 10 cent logo vs no logo. Anyway should just have machine eat all clean plastic bottles n notify user x numbers got refund x no refund - we just want to give back that bottle and not store so many at home or we throw away all sua

It's barely been 3 months but I already notice several machines squeaking and squealing when the belt starts spinning to take in the cans/bottles. doesn't sound like they designed it to be robust enough to handle the usage. Wonder when all these machines start breaking down in large numbers.

Yesterday I went to donki donki in Jurong Point. Those drinks just pasted with a sticker label for the 10c refund, no need to imprint on the can itself.

Imagine all the extra carbon dioxide generated through this whole BCRS scheme lol. Will take decades to recover and worse without storing the CO2 generated. Lazy people drive their car to dump one bottle LOL.
