Recycle Walks?

I see that these "recycle walks" are popular in other provinces. People get some great coupons plus all kinds of codes for things like icoke and the GM towels.
Anyone know if these are even possible around here? and if so, how/where/when etc??

i tried at the cbs pool, and i got nothing. I only looked for about ten seconds, but every time i tried again, a car would pull up. I waited in the car with mom until they were done, then another car, so on and so on. Finally we left and got dissappointed, but i saw cereal boxes everywhere, and i'm pretty sure i saw smartsource or redplum, but like i said, i was only looking for like 10 seconds.

its in conception bay south, its a community swimming pool. Outside of it, there are two large blue bins, one says paper, the other cardboard. They don't have tops, so you can't just jump in, they have slots that you put your arms in. Me and my mom were in the parking lot at around 4:00pm, and there wasn't a time when there weren't people dumping paper or cardboard. :(

I've been wondering if there is anywhere to find the Red Plum and P&G inserts in recycling as well, but haven't found anywhere.

Have never gone on a recycling walk in Mt. Pearl.. we don't get the redplum or brandsaver here.. so sad!! I see the blue recycling cardboard bags on recycling days & always think about the cereal boxes that could be in them with all those freebie icecreams..

I would love to go on a recycling walk, if I had a good lead on where to look. If anyone has some advice in this area, that would be super helpful!
