Blue Ridge, GA
Quoted from phil-lee:The efficient system used for drink bottles in the 60's is the standard. Buy a Coke in the bottle, return the empty, get 2 cents.
Return crates in front of gas stations, really everywhere.
Incentives to collect and return.
Bottle washing automation that (mostly) ensured a clean drink.
I really hate plastics, of all kinds though I recognize the benefits in some cases (Medical).
It is great except for all the fuel it takes to carry heavy glass back and forth.
The best delivery system is the pipes already in every building. Packaged water in any container is stupid.

I’m glad everyone is surviving!
We have been crazy busy since the end of September. Fall is huge tourist season. It will slow a bit the second week of January until spring break season starts in March.
Generally Blue Ridge is a mask free zone, probably less than 1 in 20 wear one. Our space gets crowded when we are busy an no one seems freaked out about anything.

I stopped by on my way home from Allentown and got to see the new space just after it opened.
Great people and a great collection. I'm sure they'll do great.
Quoted from cait001:What are the downsides to mall locations? I assume noise would be a problem.
A lot of malls built in the 80s that seem perpetually half full here and wish they could have pinball arcades...
Are the leases still too ridiculous at the struggling malls?
High rent, low foot traffic, restrictive hours. There aren't thousands of kids running around malls like they were in the 80's. The demographics are all wrong.
Someone tried it here in ATL recently and it didn't last long.
