Shoppers will pay extra for each item
Beverage bottles made of plastic or glass can also be made of aluminum or steel.
When they return the empty container to the store, they will get the money back.
The \"reverse vending machine\" network can be used throughout the country to collect bottles and return the deposit.
The aim is to increase recycling and reduce waste and pollution.
Details have not yet been decided, including the amount of the deposit.
In similar schemes elsewhere, deposits range from around 6 p in Australia to 22 p in Germany.
Denmark, Sweden and Norway also reward customers for returns.
The plans are said to have significantly increased recycling.

Five days later, Mr. Gove officially approved it and began formal consultations later this year.
Addressing the threat posed by plastic waste is \"absolutely critical,\" he said \".
Former President and activist Bill Bryson, author of the rural movement in England, called it \"extremely enlightened decision-making \".
The British Soft Drinks Association said it would fully support the plan.
Gavin Paddington, general manager, told The Sun: \"We will be very supportive.
