There will be exemptions for legitimate uses of nitrous oxide, for example in medical or catering industries. The gas is commonly used as a painkiller and for producing whipped cream in cooking.

    @RaivoKulli Why wouldn’t they be? If they sell a thousand cans they’ve paid a thousand deposits.
    If they return a thousand cans they get back their thousand deposits.

    The cans, as with R White’s lemonade bottles once upon a time, are fungible.

    They’ll need a tin of pennies.

      I don’t think you get what I mean. Customer buys from store A and pays them the deposit and returns them to store B who gives the customer the deposit amount. Store A doesn’t care, they got the deposit, didn’t have to return it to the customer. Store B had to give the deposit amount to customer even though they didn’t get the original deposit amount. See how it might be a nuisance to store B? That’s why you need some organization for the system.
