What were the bottle return prices on that episode where Kramer and Newman conjure up the grand scheme to recycle their empty bottles in Michigan instead of New York?

I think it was 10 cents vs. 5 cents.

I can't remember what it said in the episode, but I live in Michigan and we get a dime back for every bottle and can, except some fruit juices. It's a royal pain carting the empties back, but it's done wonders for cleaning up the roadsides. Now if they'd just fix the roads... -John

Visit Michigan's "Pothole Museum" in Flint, Michigan, where 42% of the roads need work. :)
