I proudly put the bag out at the end of my driveway. And just to make sure they wouldn't get it confused with regular trash I put it next to a stack of newspapers. And I put the other trash about 3 feet away.

So guess what? I saw the garbage guy take the recycling-bag with the rest of the regular trash.

So I said, "that's it" no more recycling.

How long will it be before the recycling police show up at my door?

I am big on recycling, it should be enforced on everyone! I have never had a problem telling if the bags are clear. It says it right on the box. Our world needs recycling. I usually have more recycle than regular garbage. So give our environment and earth a recycling happy face
