Recycling water bottles - 10 empties for 1 full

[gaypalmsprings]

According to the Coachella website:

PLEASE RECYCLE @ 10 FOR 1 BOTTLE RECYCLING CENTER
New for 2007...Recycle your empties. Bring us 10 empty water bottles that you find laying around inside the festival and redeem them for 1 new bottle of water. Please help keep the polo field clean, Recycle and stay hydrated all at the same time.

yep. free water.

[denies the day]

I think this is a great idea. I'm surprised no one has started bitching about it yet...

[fasttrack]

give them time.

[seanbateman]

There is going to be a huge demand for empty waterbottles.

[jimmycrackcorn]

IF you have the lid too, you can just roll it up and THEN put the lid on and it will take up less space in your bag... the idea is AWESOME but i am going alone and i seriously doubt i will drink 10 waters in one day... for couples or groups it will help subsidize the cost of water

[MonsoonSeason]

I will be hording water bottles--I will try to get people to help me with the collection

[fasttrack]

like i said on the other recycling thread. between the people that don't know, and the people that don't care, there are still going to be a lot of bottles to be found.

[Courtney]

I'm bringing my shopping cart.

10 fingers, 10 bottles

[ghettojournalist]

also, there will be a good number of people still leaving bottles around the campground. if "free" bottled watre is wanted, then i'm sure it can be acheived.

[fatbastard]

I'm hoping there is a correlation between bottle recyclers and front row hogs.

[momof5]

I am for any strategy to get those bottles off the field before darkness falls! If people will pick up 10 bottles they deserve a free one! I hate stumbling over trash in the dark.

[ghettojournalist]

i always found it kind of depressing to have this amazing day of music that holds high morals like recycling and conservation come to an end in a sea of empty plastic bottles.
i'm glad they are taking strides to change the sad scene.

[rage patton]

This is an awesome idea.
I am going with a group of 5! So we should get a couple "free" bottles of water each day.

[Ill_Eagle]

I'll be on the look-out....should be funny seeing people running around fighting over empty bottles...

[JustSteve]

screw that, just rip half empty ones out of people's hands, drink the remaining water, and save the empty's 'til you have 10. by then you will be so well hydrated the extra bottle will be a nice bonus! although the amount of running you will have to do to get away from angry people may dehydrate a bit.

[SojuGorae]

I'll be sure to wear this

That is what I was immagining as well. I know I will be on the look out. I wont go bottle hunting. But if I see one, I will pick it up.
That being said, if me and a random stranger spot one at the same time, and we notice each other going for it... its on!

[Quentin]

i think it's a wonderful idea!!

[MonsoonSeason]

I'm going to save them all weekend and load my tent full of them

at the end of the weekend I will give them to friends so they can be hydrated during rage

Cardboard beer things? What are you talking about?

[gaypalmsprings]

I think he's referring to the cardboard beer cooler...

[dontfeedthebird]

Uh, I think he means the carrying case like on wine coolers.
