what a great idea, take your commercial waste (ie coffee grounds) and tell a well-intentioned motivated population that it will help their cause to take it away for you and dispose of it free. i might try it with clinical waste as orgaic fertiliser. i am just being sceptic - I know it is good in your compost but counts as a "green" element

Think I have to agree with you Adam. I don't believe Starbucks have any concern for the welfare of what lives in our gardens or the wider environment. Think it is a ploy, which costs them nothing, to portray themselves in the best light to an increasingly environmentally aware population. I don't think I'm cynical - but neither am I drinking it all in like soup - or Srarbucks coffee !!

I've been using the garlic barrier & coffee grounds as well as a slug pub & hand collecting & thought I was getting on top of it until I went out yesterday afternoon when it was warm & showery & found slugs & snails appearing everywhere but I am still not going to use pellets, I just rounded them all up in a bag & threw it in the bin!Into every life a little rain must fall.
