Don't forget the nickle apiece for recycle! $25.20 buys a pretty good bottle of Scotch, or 3 liters of Vodka. And a box of Depends for the wet farts.

After his tragic hiking accident death, Hans realized he would have to spend the rest of eternity wearing that awful orange shirt. On the other hand it appeared beer wouldn't be an issue.
