A few of years ago, the big DC grocery chain, Giant, and one of their
competitors started having a price war and one of the first casualties
was the returnable 16oz bottle. (sigh) Now it's virtually impossible to
find anything in "real" bottles in the DC area.
Also, I never saw any returnables in NH or MA for the two years I was
there. I wonder why they dropped them, for the same reason, perhaps?
Of course, now that there aren't any returnables there, there are
people that want to go for a bottle bill.
