Best Buy Offers More than a Place to Buy Electronics

Yesterday, my computer tanked and I had to rush it to the emergency room. For computers, this is the Geek Squad at Best Buy. I walked in the door and noticed to my right there was a trash can looking container with three little swinging doors. One said, "Cell Phones." The other said, "Rechargeable Batteries," and the third one said, "Printer Cartridges."

I thought and said to myself, "How cool."

I'm more of an online shopper, so I may be late coming to this e-waste party, but you can take your printer cartridges, rechargeable batteries, and old cell phones to your local Best Buy for recycling.

Put it in your good to know file.
