Sure beats collecting cans. All the places here locally, you can't return more than two at one time.

The lady at the counter explained to me after I was allowed to return the jugs that they have a huge problem with people stealing the empty jugs and printing out fake deposit labels. I can see where they're coming from, BUT, they should have a sign by the water bottles or something on the receipt telling you if you're returning more than 2 at a time, you NEED the receipt to get your deposit back. When I bought the jugs from them, the lady behind the till said nothing to me about keeping the receipt to bring all the jugs back
