  this is not doable with all caps and even with those designed to do this it doesn’t work sometimes :(

    Maybe they make them better here in Denmark. Plus we have “Pant” where you pay more for the bottles but get money back when you return them so it’s a “belt and braces” approach I guess!

      Your pant is actually a deposit.
      And we have it in Germany as well called “Pfand”.

      Last time I bought something in such a bottle it was atrocious and stabbed me.

        True, true it is just a deposit, but it certainly helps. Compared to England where I lived until I was 38 there are far fewer bottles littering the streets here in Denmark, although a lot of that can be put down to general public attitude probably. Never had a bottle stab me! Sounds like a case of bad quality control.

      Without the belt and braces, your pants fall down?

        Normally one or the other is enough. Wearing both is 'more than needed" but does work as a safety net. :)
