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.)
Yep. For example: at my parents' in suburban TX - grocery stores have recycling containers for plastic bags and give a credit for bringing in cloth bags. Plus I am pretty sure they take more types of plastic than we do in NYC (we take ONLY bottles and jugs that are #1 and #2).
I seriously thought my parents had turned into dirty hippies when I saw their reusable grocery bags. But no! Apparently that kind of thing is all the rage in other places.
I'll take those!
OK, I'll put them in a bag for you.
it's Schoolhouse Rocky; a chip off the block. Of your favorite scoolhouse, Schoolhouse Rock!
Exactly - more songs for mac to memorize.
Including the Preamble to the Constitution, which should come in handy in sixth grade, if his experience is anything like mine.
I was surprised at all the people bringing their own bags in Las Cruces, at the Albertsons. I mean, it's never been a hotbed of recycling either (not counting cans.) But I'd say at least 25% of customers were carting their own bags. I don't know what the Walmarts (a lot of people grocery shop there now- it's driven out a lot of other groceries) look like.
I don't see that around here much.
