I bet beer isn't the only thing a few of you take in the can, is it?

I crush my beer cans, and store them in a trash bag in the garage. A friend of mine owns the local bike shop, he crushes his cans and puts aside any AL bike parts too. A couple of our friends bring AL by when they have it, or take the time to crush a bunch of cans. Every 2-3 months, I collect it all up and take it to the scrap dealer, currently $0.53 per pound. We get $200-$300 per year from it, and donate the money to the robotics club my son and I used to belong to. It's probably not really worth my time, but I like that I know it is really getting recycled, and didn't end up in a landfill somewhere.
