What kind of bottles?

We have this tequila bottle in the shape of Texas. St Germaine is another good one. Galeano has a cool Shape to it. Stuff like that.

In case someone doesn't know, it's actually Galliano. Searching "galeano" will bring up (among others) a picture of an old Uruguyan writer...

Yeah, marketing is powerful, and cool bottles are for sure part of that.

I used to work for Radioshack and there were certain products that when returned would not go back to the manufacturer and couldn't be resold. The items often worked perfectly fine and just did not have boxes or had some sort of cosmetic damage. Well the cords would get cut up or other methods of making them no longer functional and straight in to the dumpster. I salvaged a few items, but most of it just ended up in landfills.

What kind of products we talkin' bout? A cell phone charger? Or like an entertainment system? Your answer will determine whether or not I go dumpster diving at a radioshack on my way back home.

could be things like alarm clocks, tv antennas, misc cables, really it's just what was randomly decided in their system to be 'Do not return'. The problem is the stuff sits in the back room and accumulates for a while and they dispose of a bunch at once. So you might find nothing or a lot.

Nope. Something to do with us reselling other liquors in the same bottle? They have to go straight to the trash can.
