everything was labelled inaccurately or else not at all

Ahh, like the 7-Eleven by one place I inhabited a few years ago.. every time I went to pick up Sapporo, it'd be a different price. Sometimes $2.39, sometimes $1.89.. I think it formed something of a Gaussian distribution, overall.

Someday, I'll discover where California Redemption Value on bottles goes. In Oregon, the system was boringly straightforward - if a place sold such goods, you could take the bottle back and receive the 5 or 10ยข deposit.

Last time I moved, I'd only used about half the box of laundry detergent, so I just left it with the others in the house. It surely wouldn't go to waste, and taking half a box of detergent a third of the way around the world did seem a tiny bit pointless. Perhaps a detergent connoisseur would've been appreciative.
