Bitter's bottles

Newbie at digging
OK, I've collected bottles since I was 14 (even though the early ones have disappeared in moves and such). I have bought all my bottles but the digging itch is bad. I DREAM I've found caches of old bottles!! I wouldn't mind finding that valuable bottle but mostly I'm interested in where it's...- scduckett
