Are you still looking to buy the pop top tabs? Let me know.
I heard of someone who made a hammock with them.
It looks like aluminum recycling for cans runs around 25 cents a pound in most places in the U.S. You would need to check with your local recycler but I would say it is worth no more than $10 that way.
It's possible that you may be able to sell them to a crafter online. There are a bunch of lots for sale and the prices are all over the place. Someone would have to pay for the shipping though, and that would cut into what someone would be willing to pay.
Good luck and let us know what they are worth when you find out.

I collect the tabs to donate to Ronald McDonald House. The aluminum content is very valuable, more than the cans (although I recycle those).
