Re: PakTech holders, I tend to hold onto them as eventually I'll be passing off a few beers to a pal and this makes it easier. A couple of breweries here in Nova Scotia have the recycling box from PT, and Propeller Brewing goes one step further and will give you a quarter for every one you bring back! I'll save up 20 and get a free Galaxy or Sabro can, seems like a no-brainer. ps. Atlantic Canada Bubble is on pause as NB and NS deal with outbreaks, and NS has gone into full Circuit Breaker mode stopping all booze retail/indoor enjoyment for the next 4 weeks. Well, except the provincial monopoly stores, but I'm sure that's just an oversight...
