New Environmentally Friendly Service in Fenton Michigan - Can Do Returnables
Born From Sheer Laziness and DisgustWe admit it. We hate taking back Michigan returnable cans and bottles. But it is good for the environment and keeps our streets clean. So it is a good thing. And we have no choice but to take them back to get our can or bottle deposits back. Or do we?
We remember a simpler time. A time before the returnable kiosks in the neighborhood grocery stores. A time when we could simply take in a bag or cart full of cans, tell the man behind the counter how many we had, and walk off with our hard earned money back in our own pockets. A time when an eager high school student would process our messy cans and bottles for us. But those times are gone. Or are they?
We despised the dirty looks from the other people, as grumpy as we were about this chore, when we would finally get around to carting in those sacks full of sticky, smelly cans and bottles. We detest the boring monotony of feeding one can at a time into those dirty kiosks. You are already in the grocery store, but who wants to shop for food after handling all those potentially germ-ridden returnables?

Treasure Hunt at Attic Treasures Tent at St. John's Applefest
One of the most popular attractions at the Saint John Applefest is the Attic Treasures Tent. Think of it as a huge, consolidated subdivision garage sale where one man's trash is another man's treasure. There are some serious deals to be had, and the word is getting out.When do you find the best of the best deals? Right at the very beginning before the items have had a chance to be combed over, of course. And here is where the "Treasure Hunt" comes in ... For a $3 entry fee, you can get into the tent today (Thursday, September 13th) before the general public! "We always have a large waiting line before the festival opens at 3PM, so we decided this would be a good way to get people into the tent early and make a little more money (for the church)," said Kathy Williams, chair of this event.
FentonSays.com has some conflicting information on when this early bird special on the Attic Treasures Tent. The Tri-County Times, in an article in the September 9th edition, states that the "Treasure Hunt" is from 1PM until 3PM. However, the St. John's Applefest website states that the early bird period is only an hour between 2PM and 3PM. And you readers know that FentonSays is about blogging the rumors instead of always checking the facts. But there you have it. We might suggest showing up at 1PM to be safe, and if the tent flaps don't open until 2PM you can always fill that time with an apple pie or carnival games.
