How many Jamaicans appreciate that when tossing empty containers into the garbage that some of these containers cost more than the contents they held when purchased?

In Europe, some supermarkets have machines into which one can deposit one's empty containers and in return a coupon is issued from which one gets credit from the supermarket involved when making a purchase from them.

Surely, it would save Jamaica foreign exchange if we recycled bottles and other containers currently discarded into mounting landfills.
