    Pilot showers

    I was looking more at the singles... 6% of 2.00 = .12, compared to a dime deposit. All this is really is a tax. MI was whining a number of years back, because people were bringing in bottles from OH, and cashing them in. MI said they count on the difference between bottles turned in, and not...
