It's an urban legend. See http://www.snopes.com/business/redeem/pulltabs.asp

Some people do collect them for Ronald McDonald House, but you are better off collecting the entire aluminum cans, cashing them in and sending the money to a charity because that's what they are doing with the tops.

Sorry, but it's an urban legend with no basis in fact. It's been around for the last 40 years, still isn't true.

I know that in Iowa when I used to work at McDonald's, we used to collect them and send them to the Ronald McDonald House to help very sick little kids and their families when they have to be hospitalized. You may want to check into that...Good luck :)

Yes Ronald McDonald house does take them. They are great there. I stayed there when my son had his heart surgery....

My niece's girls were collecting them for a while and turning them in at school...also, Cambells soup labels and other things...Check with any Elementary School in your District.
