I once bought a jacket in a sale, that had been successively reduced from £150 to £75, and then had a final reduction tag of £25, and was exactly what I wanted, so I was quite excited to be getting such a bargain. Took it to the till, the shopgirl scanned the code and said it was £5. Result. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate buying shoes as I find that only about 20% that I buy I actually keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you know the glass bottle is the pinnacle of Coca-Cola. When I want to treat myself I get a 6 pack for about 4 quid from the supermarket. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think @mjmooney and myself talked about this a week or so back... glass bottle followed by can followed in a distant third by a plastic bottle. For some reason drinks taste absolute shit out of a plastic bottle. I haven't seen glass bottles of Coke in the shops for a while? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason drinks taste absolute shit out of a plastic bottle. I haven't seen glass bottles of Coke in the shops for a while? I agree with that order definitely. Coke out of a glass bottle completely changes it for me and does give you that tonic feel, I can see why people thought of it that way 100 years ago. They sell them in my local Morrison's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Should still be readily selling glass bottles, if only because they can be recycled. Even cans are better! I'm surprised there hasn't been a big(ger) campaign against the excessive use of plastics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we should start a campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recycling-wise glass would be much better as it will be reused the same way, in some cases just cleaned instead of melted again. Even though we recycle PET-plastic it usually doesn't go back to being bottles again but rather some other use. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
