How much money could you make by saving pop cans over a year?

Question

I am trying to find a way to make money while I am in college, so far not a single door has open for me to work while I am in college.

I thought about saving some pop cans over a year, and I was wondering if anyone can tell me how much I could make by saving pop cans?

A web site that talks about it would be nice

Answer 1

college? Try raiding frat beer parties and help yourself to the cans while the owners sleep it off.....

Answer 2

Depends on how much you drink/save.  Depending on where you live, it's 3 to 5 cents per can.  If you can cut out the pop, you'd save more than by saving cans.  Figure a 12 pack costs $4 with redemption, and you drink 2 a week.  That would be $8 you spent.  If you were to cash in the cans, you'd be getting $1.20 back, thus you still lost $6.80.  Go buy some crystal light, it'll be like $4 for 3 gallons worth.  Tastes great, better for you, and it doesn't create trash.

Answer 3

i know if you havew a full 55gal garbage bag of cans its worth 8 bucks
