Get Paid For Recycling Your Electronics!
As many of you probably do, my wife and I have a ton of old electronics laying around the house. Old cell phones, Ipods, Digital Cameras, that sit in a drawer in a filing cabinet (The drawer is labeled "Electronics Graveyard!)
Now, we have something to do with them, and will make a little money in the process!
This is the link - http://www.greensight.com/CostcoTrades
If you're a Costco member, you can go to this webpage and depending on what you're recycling, can receive a Costco giftcard in exchange! The company even pays for shipping, all you have to do is package the item.
For example, my wife just upgraded her cell phone. Her current phone was listed on the website. We packaged the phone and the charger into a box, printed out the pre-paid shipping label, and dropped it off at Staples. Now we just sit back and wait for our $20 Costco Giftcard!
The other great thing - even if what you're recycling doesn't work 100%, you can still receive some credit. For example, if you don't have the charger for your cell phone, it may drop the credit that you receive by $5 or so.
Take a look at the website, it's a great service!
What a great resource! We usually pull the battery out and let the kids play with the phone. Expensive toy sometimes but if it doesn't work it's worthless anyway.
