<Anchor> It
's a kind economy time.
Today (6th), I will be with reporter Kwon Ae-ri.
hello.
When it comes to our kind economy, it's very good to occasionally deliver small saving tips in this life.
I heard it's related to today.
<Reporter>
Yes, anchor Choi Jae-young already has a lifestyle that allows him to save money.
<Anchor>
Me?
What is it?
<Reporter>
Whenever you go to a coffee shop, you always bring a tumbler and bring coffee.
<Anchor> When
I come out at dawn, I bring something to drink, but I try to use it as much as possible if I have a chance to drink coffee after drinking it.
<Reporter>
Carrying around a tumbler is a bit cumbersome, but considering that there are many people who buy and drink more than one cup of coffee every day, it is a good lifestyle to avoid using more than 300 cups of disposable cups in a year.
There are many people who already use it, but starting this year, you can even take care of your leftovers just by using this tumbler.
It started this week.
Starbucks, Mega Coffee, Paul Bassett, and The Venti.
If you take this tumbler to the four coffee shops and say, 'Put my drink here', you can get 300 won back each time.
First of all, you get 5,000 won first and get 300 won back every time you use the tumbler.
<Anchor>
Do you take 5,000 won first?
This part stands out a bit.
How do you get 5,000 won?
<Reporter>
It's not like they just give me 5,000 won at Starbucks or Mega Coffee.
If you type carbon point practice in the search bar now, this site will appear.
This is the page that is currently on the screen.
English address is also shown.
This page has been operated by the government since January of last year to promote lifestyles conducive to environmental protection.
You must sign up here.
I signed up too, and it's pretty simple.
They don't even ask for an address.
We give you 5,000 won just by signing up.
260,000 people have already received it.
Then, if you practice some of the lifestyles set out in this carbon-neutral point practice system, you will receive a certain amount as points for the account or card you specified on the page.
The 5,000 won I mentioned earlier will also be deposited in a month to the place I designated.
Last year, we returned money for all five actions.
It has increased to 9 from this week.
Among the nine things added this year, there is the 'use a tumbler' when going to a coffee shop that I just mentioned.
Many office workers have already installed and used the regular coffee shop app on their mobile phones.
You need an app.
Starbucks, Mega Coffee, Paul Bassett, The Venti.
Every time I go to these four stores, if I ask them to put my coffee in a tumbler while calculating with each store app, 300 won is automatically accumulated.
<Anchor>
First of all, you have to sign up for a membership and install an app. It sounds good, but it seems a bit complicated. Is there a simple way?
[Reporter
] That's right.
The method is a bit complex now, right?
So, the Ministry of Environment decided to create a way to get a refund more conveniently this year.
It is said that they are promoting a way to easily receive refunds by unifying them into one related card like a transportation card.
Until then, you need to go through two steps: sign up for the carbon point practice page and sign up for each coffee shop app.
But there is one thing.
After simplifying the refund method, the 5,000 won that is given at the start is not given just by signing up as it is now, but we plan to change it to something that needs to be practiced.
So, I recommend that you sign up first.
In fact, as I mentioned earlier, in addition to 300 won for the use of the tumbler added this time, 100 won each time an electronic receipt is used or when ordering food with a delivery app, if you check to use a reusable multi-use container and order, you will get 1,000 won back. there was
However, you have to sign up for each of the apps of companies participating in this carbon point practice system, and there are still limits to returning 1,000 won for multi-use container orders only in certain regions.
300 won for the use of the tumbler added this time, I introduced this today because office workers who already use regular store apps can start practicing it without difficulty.
It would be best if the method of use was simplified quickly, but in fact, the real purpose is to protect the environment.
If you are interested, it would be nice to sign up for the carbon point practice page, receive 5,000 won first, look around in more detail, and practice what I can do.
The sum of all the money returned annually will return up to 70,000 won.
