Here you can get them at most grocery stores. It's also usually the standard for German Brands, it's mostly Coca Cola Brands that are sold in Single-Use-Plastic

Err, the fact that you get a deposit back when returning the bottles means they're most certainly NOT single use.

PET flasks are very easily recycled. Easier then glass. There is a whole industry built on it!

Here in NL we've had this system for as long as i can remember. (Im over 50)

Err, wrong. Every Bottle in Germany has a deposit on them. 25ct for Single Use PET 15ct for Multi-Use PET and Glass Bottles

And Use refers to the amount of times they get refilled until the material gets recycled.

So..we say the same thing? The bottle or the materials get reused when there is a deposit?
