i never liked seinfeld, so i don't know if it made it into the episode, but
there's a five hundred dollar fine for returning out-of-state bottles in
michigan. . . .

(for those who missed it, the premise was that they would return a sizable
number of bottles bought in New York (deposit: 5c) in Michigan, doubling
their deposit investment. . .)
