Back on the wagon.

This is over due. What have I been doing these past four months since my last post I hear you ask? Well, heaps actually.
First of all, I bailed on my South East Queensland existence and made my way north. I have since had four different jobs ranging from landscaping to salesperson. I have finally finished settling into my new home with my wife and children. I have finally found new walking tracks and have only just begun to explore the area around me! The possibilities here are endless! And yes, I have found the local cans dispensary.
My can investments have fallen to the way side due to the fact that I needed to cash them in to make the big move. I have been left with no choice but to start again. So here we are. New Year, new can adventure.
Today I made my way to the can dispensary and cashed in a small harvest. First thing that should be noted is that the can dispensary in Bundaberg is toats molates or as the cool kids would say, totally heckers.... It’s busy, and noisy, and smelly but still popular. Mostly the experience I have had visiting the dispensary has been a pleasant one with only one exception. I had one old man push in front, I tolerated it as he looked like he could use all the help he could get.
In total I collected $12.20 from my haul.
So, as of today I have a total of $12.20 cents. That’s 122 units collected and cashed.
I still have all my silver I bought using the previous cans but I am not going to count these in this years tally! I am starting fresh! Any new gold or silver bought with this years can money will be included but not last years hoard, that has since moved into the family treasury.


While walking I have found plenty of cans to harvest. But also while walking I have noticed I am far from the only person harvesting bottles and cans in Bundaberg. But that’s the way the can crumbles I guess, there’s nothing wrong with a bit of healthy competition. Perhaps I will need to get up early, after all, the early bird gets the great northern bottle.


Total = $12.20
