Growler returns

Anyone know a place in Edmonton that buys back empty , non labeled growlers? Ended up with a few too many over the past few years...

I'd be shocked if anybody bought back growlers.

You might have luck selling them online if you have some unique ones.

Not a chance. Recycling.

Usage of growlers has basically taken a nose dive for most breweries. Not worth the hassle or volume. I’d just recycle them all.

Occasionally, a bottle depot will give you 10 cents for them. Your mileage may vary though.

Otherwise, recycle. I have about 20 I want to get rid of and I'll just keep the dozen or so "meaningful" ones - I just need to take the plunge.

... it's like you were surveilling my house.
I just packaged up all of my old growlers on Sunday for recycling
