this thread isn't about if she can afford a pet or not. It's about a brother helping his sister not stretch herself too thin. He is not going to Kelowna to collect your empties. So I don't think your post has a place in this thread.

Start a new thread if you want to debate the 'pet as a luxury' thing

Yes, this thread is looking for donations of bottles, cans or cash if you can help out. If you wish to debate pet ownership, or other dog related debates, I can suggest a couple of good dog boards. Please stay on topic. Thanks

Hi all, I'm TENTATIVELY planning to do the "bottle drive" on the weekend of March 29th & 30th. If any offerings can be confirmed, that'd be fantastic! Thank you to all who have offered and a very special thank you S.L. (asked to remain anonymous), for your very generous contribution!

Regards,

I'd love to donate a few garbage bags of pop cans. I live in the southeast, and next weekend works fine for me. I can probably set aside 2-3 garbage bags full.

Since I'm in Kelowna, I took back my empties earlier after reading this and sent you the total on paypal :P

Hope all goes well!
