I was hoping to see an increase in the deposit amount / return amount. If they are worth 10 cents or even a quarter you would see far less on the side of the road which is the point of the bill. 5 cents doesn’t motivate anybody anymore.

Fun fact: the deposit was introduced in this state in 1972 at 5 cents, which adjusted for inflation is 36 cents in 2023 dollars.
