So I show up at the Summerhill Beer Store with my three bottles in my canvas bag. They have a separate returns area in the vestibule so you don’t have to go into the store proper. I plunk canvas bag down on counter.
Beer Store guy: Just the wine bottles?
Me: Yup.
Beer Store guy: OK, here’s 60 cents.
Really, I can’t complain.
Incidentally, they don’t seem to care whether the bottles were bought before or after the deposit came in.
