Question. I no longer have a VCR. So what do I do with old videotapes? Just throw them away? That seems so sad. But I can't imagine anyone else wanting my motley collection of tapes.
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
There are places that recycle them. You might have luck finding one, living in the center of the universe.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
lots of people still have VCRs. Do you have a book shelf in your building or at the laundry? I take VHS tapes that I think Mac will like, if you have any PG stuff.

Jesse, my office has contacts with a tape recycler - I can get the info for you on Tuesday if you're interested.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
So what do I do with old videotapes?
eBay as a lot or several lots
Donate to a local library
Sell at a yardsale
Donate to Goodwill or the like organization
Donate to a local school (most will take G, PG and PG-13)
plus all the other ideas suggested...

Oh, that would be great, Jess. It's probably not even 20 tapes, if that makes a difference. And msbelle, they include musical hearthrobs of the 90s (LL Cool J, Johnny Gill, I forget who else), and some Buffy. So, probably not to Mac's taste.
Oh! I do have a couple of Schoolhouse Rock, if you want those. (America Rock and Grammar Rock.)
