Newman & Kramer gather 9999 bottles & cans to haul to Michigan for an extra 5 cents for recycling. __ From Seinfeld Season 7 Episode 21 "The Bottle Deposit"
I'm so glad they didn't edit out my favorite exchange... *Newman:* "Refund?" *Jerry:* "Well, what do you think the hobos are doin'?" *Newman:* "I don't know. They're deranged."
Kramer is a true friend. He chose saving Jerry's car over what looked to be a pretty good score. Each of those bags were $25-$30 worth of cans and they had dozens of bags meaning he threw away over $1000 worth of cans. Adjust for inflation in 2023 dollars thats $2000.
The weird thing is this applies to Nevada and California. So you only have to cross the border. And a family just got busted for making millions. I guess they had a bottle collection site in Nevada and transported them across the border.
Jerry: I love when you get your car back from the car place, and it's got that... paper mat on the floor. Like they're so obsessed with cleanliness. They don't even want their shoes to touch the carpet. Meanwhile, the mechanic comes out. He looks like Al Jolson. He's covered in goo from head to toe. You can't even see him. Although I prefer that to when they have the lab coat, the clipboard, the nice glasses. Now you know you're getting screwed. "Can I see it?" "You better not. It's idling quietly right now. I think it should stay overnight. We wanna keep an eye on it, and we wanna keep the bill running up."
....except for the fact they don't pay 5 or cents a can and pay by the pound making this episode and what it says in cans and bottles complete, bullshit! Especially since they pay more for plastic bottles by the pound because they are hella light!
They pay you by weight though, not 5 cents or 100 cents per can, So the 5 cents and 10 cents is a Lie! Getting paid 10 cents or even 5 cents a can is way more money in pounds than being paid by the pound!
@@leblanc3536 _"They brought that up in the episode. Kramer and Newman didn’t want to get in trouble for misusing a mail van"_ That doesn't make any sense. Kramer and Newman have a cell phone. They could just call the police, report Jerry's stolen car at their location on the highway and follow the car until the police arrive and pull the mechanic over. For what reason whatsoever would the police search the mail truck that Kramer and Newman are in and find the cans and bottles? There's nothing that would be suspicious about Newman, a postal employee, driving a mail truck. There would be no reason cops would think to search it. But if they just called the police, the episode would be over in 5 minutes. The whole _"Kramer doesn't want a record"_ thing was just a lame excuse the writers came up with to get around this most obvious plot hole.
can't show the entire episode, will get taken down to copyright, almost every seinfeld episode from start to finish was a masterpiece so something had to go
@@chrism3784 Well, obviously, you can't show the whole episode BUT he is right, none of the jokes from this episode are in this video. It's just basic plot points, exposition and the setup moments. Kinda makes watching this vid pointless.
The barcode needs to be visible to deposit the cans, learned that lesson flattening the cans and then trying to deposit them too 😂😅 they won't accept it at any place either apparently if theyve been fattened!
@LayersofLife36 Wrong, dumbass! They don't even pay per can or bottle! They pay per can, so they most certainly CAN be flattened! They just scrap them for metal and plastics anyways. So the barcodes are pointless!
He was asking why it was 10c, instead of the 5c. even though mothers day is sunday, many people still sent a lot of mail back in the day to mom, so they needed extra trucks to transport it
How was Kramer getting a signal all the way out there from his home phone line, you’re only supposed to get signal in a radius of about 20 meters inside your home, 30 at best. Aaaah what’s the point making sense of things wasn’t a focus in this show.
Newman wasn't buying soda JUST to get money back per bottle. He was just a regular soda drinker and started saving the bottles. And Kramer made him chug all the soda that Newman already had at his home so that they can take them to the recycling center. But I do agree that is dumb cuz why chug five 6-packs of soda in one sitting to a point where it makes you sick to your stomach just to make $3? Just leave your personal soda stash out of it and drink them at your normal consumption rate.
@LordThree He used Food stamps, and already bought the soda and it is all a moot point since Recycling Centers don't pay per bottle, they pay by pound which is way less than 5 cents per can or bottle! Recycling Centers are a Scam!

My favorite episode
Newman is a mailman and he doesn’t know the state abbreviations, sounds about right.
😂
I think he knew, just was asking why it said 10c instead of all the others 5c
I'm so glad they didn't edit out my favorite exchange...

TBH, Jerry gave Kramer more than that letting him raid his fridge all the time.
@@whyistherumgone8184Guess he almost got a return on his investment eventually
A true friend? Yeah ask Newman how great he is
@@ricardoriverajr4607 Let’s not forget that Newman tried to eat him.
Kramer gets shit done, should be the next GTA protagonist
Tony: You'll never take me alive Kramer!
Kramer: You're a thief!!
When Newman looks at that picture and said "Mother's Day", if you look closely it was Newman in the picture, dressed as a woman 😂
Michigan native here. The 10¢ refund is awesome.
Lies! Recycling center pay per pound, not by bottles and cans! Which is way less!
Newman you magnificent bastard you did it!!
Let the collecting begin!!
Hahaha…”what do you think the hobos are doing!!!”
I don't know they're deranged
Lol😂
He's taking out the woods!
"i want to know why" is such a great and innocent line.
Even though that bastard mechanic got Kramer in the end, at least Kramer’s heart was in the right place.
Could you imagine putting 10,000 empties in the bottle return? Your local package store probably doesn't have that much cash on hand.
Newman and Kramer never fail to make me laugh 😃
9999 bottles & cans on the wall, 9999 bottles & cans~
Hi to all the ppl seeing this after hearing about the ppl from AZ trying this on California.
The weird thing is this applies to Nevada and California. So you only have to cross the border. And a family just got busted for making millions. I guess they had a bottle collection site in Nevada and transported them across the border.
Watched the making of that episode on dvd. The actress got the name Newman wrong. The whole crew laughed, they kept it in.
Jerry: I love when you get your car back from the car place, and it's got that... paper mat on the floor. Like they're so obsessed with cleanliness. They don't even want their shoes to touch the carpet. Meanwhile, the mechanic comes out. He looks like Al Jolson. He's covered in goo from head to toe. You can't even see him. Although I prefer that to when they have the lab coat, the clipboard, the nice glasses. Now you know you're getting screwed. "Can I see it?" "You better not. It's idling quietly right now. I think it should stay overnight. We wanna keep an eye on it, and we wanna keep the bill running up."
Great job writing all that!
Thank you. I was hoping to see clip witn edits that took away from how funny it is. 👍
So what happened to Jerry’s car?
Funnny episode.
The fact that Newman is dangerously smart when he applies himself is kinda frightening
....except for the fact they don't pay 5 or cents a can and pay by the pound making this episode and what it says in cans and bottles complete, bullshit! Especially since they pay more for plastic bottles by the pound because they are hella light!
02:53 what a kick! Totally unexpected 😂
I live close to all the nickel states. The best part is 9,999 bottles and cans
They pay you by weight though, not 5 cents or 100 cents per can, So the 5 cents and 10 cents is a Lie! Getting paid 10 cents or even 5 cents a can is way more money in pounds than being paid by the pound!
Great side story lol
In Quebec we deposit empty bottles and cans in the machine there, and it's good.
I did this uk-norway, but only one can.
This episode of Seinfeld shows how important OCD is
GOODBYE NORMAN
That was actually a mistake. The actress was supposed to say "Newman". But they thought it was funny and kept it.
Why not just call the police and keep going to Michigan?
Maybe there’s nothing they can do to find that car and arrest or penalize the guy who stole it?
@@rayanzaidi2793Which is odd, since most car thieves usually get caught and charged unless they’re smuggling them into Mexico
They brought that up in the episode. Kramer and Newman didn’t want to get in trouble for misusing a mail van

Goodbye Norman Goodbye
You shortened it too much, now you cut out key details and jokes. 😒

@@rustincohle2135 true
They should have flattened the cans first, then they would have really made a killing!

@@GaryTongue-zn5diLOL you called that guy a dumbass 😅😅
Kramer recycle bottle and can ♻️
So he was okay with being charge an extra $.30 cents when he bought that and didn’t realize what it was?
As a mailman, how does Newman not know what state MI represents… and Mother’s Day is on a Sunday. No mail on Sunday.
He was asking why it was 10c, instead of the 5c. even though mothers day is sunday, many people still sent a lot of mail back in the day to mom, so they needed extra trucks to transport it
Mail never stops. Thats what Newman said

If they were beer bottles this would make more sense. Not even Newman is so stupid that he’d buy a bunch of soda just to get $.60 back per 6-pack
Newman wasn't buying soda JUST to get money back per bottle. He was just a regular soda drinker and started saving the bottles. And Kramer made him chug all the soda that Newman already had at his home so that they can take them to the recycling center.

He used Food stamps, and already bought the soda and it is all a moot point since Recycling Centers don't pay per bottle, they pay by pound which is way less than 5 cents per can or bottle! Recycling Centers are a Scam!
Jerry looks like the biggest undercover minute man…
Just recently a family was charged for fraud for this. They made $6,000,000. Not so crazy after all.
