Pantti (deposit) on cans. An unknown phenomenon in my country.

yes, you pay it when you buy a can/bottle and you get it back when you return them (there are recycling machines almost in every stores):

many cans (95%) (or bottles (92-100% / plastic-glass)) are recycled because of this. some goes back to the factory and are reused. the deposit varies from 0,10e to 0,40e depending on the bottle and for cans it is 0,15e.

We recycle too. Plastic bottles, with 'pantti'. Just no drink cans with deposit.
All other packaging made of plastics, paper, cans, textiles, glass, and biodegradable waste (veggies, fruits, gardening watse) is recycled here.

Isn't that ridiculously pricey? My brother got into that for a while, but I was never interested enough to justify the subscription.

I started with the free trial and told my family to send pics etc., they are still thinking about it. I am hoping to just do 1 month and then get a book printed (haven't really looked at that yet) then cancel my membership. If I can do that it will be well worth it. But my family is...well...they are. LOL So we'll see how far I get.

I did genealogy research for many years. Countless hours looking at microfilm and walking cemeteries and visiting court houses in multiple states. When the free online sites popped up, I freely contributed my research. Among the sites was RootsWeb. It was purchased by Ancestry and now my work is on Ancestry. I can't amend it or remove it without joining/paying for a subscription. Ancestry took free sharing to a new level lol. Some how this just doesn't sit well with me.

With that said... genealogy work is a great quest with a reward now and then. It's a lot of fun and very time consuming.
Ancestry is a great site with loads of info. It is a great place to start. Take advantage of their census work and publications.
Take family trees with a grain of salt. There are mistakes in my tree that they host that I can't access. I'm sure I'm not the only one that refuses to pay for what I freely contributed.

I do believe The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) does quite well these days, especially online. And it's not banned in China either.

$200 to the plumbing company. That's how I started the week. Ugh.

I did laundry and it all backed up into the tub (thankfully) while the toilet emptied. I knew that wasn't just right! Had a bit of a tree root issue but it's all good now.

 

[Clementine_3]

What? @rootabaga bought a watch? Say it ain't so! Color me shocked.

 

[Kaizuroge]

How is the watch? I'm actually looking into purchasing an edifice as well.

 

[Kaizuroge]

Thanks for the info.
