Staples Recycling
Now,
Staples is offering an incentive to recycle your old, worn-out binders. Instead
of throwing them away, take them with you to a participating Staples and turn
them in. For each old binder you recycle, Staples will give you $2.00 toward a
new binder that you buy from the store. Not only does this offer an outlet for
binder recycling, but it allows you to save money on new office supplies! Keep
in mind that the $2.00 credit can only be applied to one new binder. So, if you
turn in two old binders and buy one new one, you can’t have $4.00 toward that
binder. It’s $2.00 per new binder. Go to this webpage to find out more on the
offer.
Make sure
you use your office supplies for as long as you can before buying new ones. I
am currently reusing my binders from my senior year in high school for my
freshman year of college. They were still in usable condition, so there was no
reason to discard them for new ones. The same goes with folders and unfinished
packs of loose-leaf paper. I had enough loose-leaf paper left over from my
senior year of high school that I didn’t have to buy new paper for college.
Always keep in mind how you can reduce your consumption of goods, and
subsequently, your money expenditures.
