Hi Colin. I’m in Slovakia current and I believe the system is similar, if the shop sells a brand then they accept those bottles.
I believe it’s useful information to be mapped. It is possible to find the machine that accepts the widest range of brands. One may not remember, or know, where a particular bottle was purchased. I agree, it will be almost impossible to find a scheme to fit every country, but at least some details on the wiki page would be useful :) Sent from Jake Edmonds' iPhone > On 5 Jan 2020, at 14:33, Colin Smale <colin.sm...@xs4all.nl> wrote: > > > Jake, could I ask you to state what country/state you are referring to?
