there are 49700 pop tabs in a 5 gallon water jug
There's no place I know of you can cash in can tabs. You can cash in whole cans at a recycling station.I suppose if you took in a wheelbarrow of tabs, you might get a couple of bucks, but the amount would be based on weight and tabs don't weigh much.

You can recycle your soda can tabs at Meserole Street Recycling Inc. Their phone number is 718 456-5000.
Any metal recycling center.
That's an urban legend. And needles are made of mild steel, not aluminum.If you want any money for the can tabs, you can find a local recycler to pay you for the scrap aluminum.No organization will pay out cash, goods, or services for pull tabs from aluminum cans. Some will accept donations of pull tabs but their marginal value is only for scrap aluminum.Anyone gathering pull tabs for charity and cash would do far better to collect whole cans; accumulating nothing but pull tabs is like eschewing quarters in order to collect pennies.The next time someone asks you to donate pull tabs for a good cause, donate a few facts instead.That is a good idea, but you could also put them on Ebay. The value of regular soda or beer pull tabs are worth between 1 and 2 cents each, but the colored tabs on Red Bull or Monster energy drink pull tabs are worth between 5 and 8 cents each.
No. It is not true. From time to time, a business like McDonalds restaurants or Mobil gas stations might run a promotion, where you get something for a bag of pull tabs. But there is nothing about pull tabs that makes them any more valuable than their weight in scrap aluminum or steel, which is not much.
It depends on how much you can get per pound of aluminum pull tabs.The type I silver aluminum pull tab (the normal pop can tab which accounts for 96.21% of the U.S. market) weighs in at about 0.65 pounds per thousand (0.0104 ounces each). These tabs have no special value other than the fact that they are scrap aluminum.A gallon of tabs is about 3,400-4,700 tabs (they is no way to get an exact number, as I have recorded 156 different tabs, and there is the matter of the little curly thing which tangles all the tabs together and can affect volume by up to 36%), so a gallon should weigh in close to 2.65 pounds.As scrap aluminum is going for 50 cents to a dollar, depending where you live, yoiu would therefore have a value of $1.33 to $2.65 in metal.The story of the special value of a gallon of tabs all started during a 1998 Tab Fest (a Wisconsin Concert for charity) collection, where one of the participants wanted to turn in the most tabs, and told all of his friends that he would buy a keg of beer for whoever brought him the most tabs (i have also heard that the prize was $75, a Guitar, etc, but it was in fact a keg of beer). In this fellows little contest, the winning contributor turned in a 1 gallon milk jug of tabs. It should be noted that in 1998, the dominant tab was the Type III silver, which we now find on 24 ounce beer cans, weighing in at 14.7 ounces per 1,000, though I would assume they still would weigh in at about 2.65 pounds per gallon$100 worth of tabs at the national average of 75 cents per pound, would take up the space of a picnic cooler, where as $100 in aluminum cans would fill a good sized van.Anybody who chooses to believe the rumor of tabs being worth more than scrap aluminum is welcome to contact me, I'll sell you 5 gallons for $100.coindude1@charter.netSource(s):http://cubmaster526.angelfire.com/gallon…
