There are many more locations, if Desert Ridge is not convenient!

Earth Day Excitement Saturday, April 30th

From Desert Ridge Marketplace:

Do you have old computers, printers, telephones or anything else you want to get rid of that has a cord? Unload your old electronics at the recycling station near Wolfley’s, between 8am and 3pm, and support the efforts of StRUT (Students Recycling Used Technology) and Westech Recyclers.

Once you drop off your recyclables come over to the District Stage from 12-2pm to receive educational recycling information and enjoy live music and eclectic recycled items on display and for sale.

Don't forget to visit RoadRunners' Farmers Market sometime before or after the excitement! 

HOPE EVERYONE HAD A GREAT EARTH DAY!

Earth Day, Every Day...Exchange Empty Essentials for Travel Size Toiletries!

WOW! I am always looking for places to recycle odds and ends...what a great deal I came across (not that I NEED an incentive to recycle every last bit after great documentaries, such as Wall-E);

As part of Origins‘ ongoing initiative to protect the environment, the skin care company will take your empty cosmetic packaging –everything from bottles, tubes, jars, deodorant sticks and compacts regardless of the brand- to be recycled, when possible, or responsibly converted to energy.


As a thank you for supporting the Return to Origins Recycling Program, the company will gift you with free Origins samples.

Thanks to www.thecentsableshoppin.com , my favorite go-to site for weekly grocery savings.
