Exactly. In Germany, return payment is 0.25 EURO and it works great. Most people at home collect them and bring to supermarket. Those who throw them on streets, homeless people are more than happy to pick up and cash in. Win-win situation in every angle.

They are nice thick ones as well. I usually bring one or two home from Germany, as they are far better suited for reuse when hiking than the crappy ones you get here.
