Renew, Reinvent & Recycle!

Thanks to Dime Divas reader and dear friend Brittany for this fantastic find! She found it here!

Target is offering a coupon for a FREE recycled tote bag when you help recycle your used Target plastic bags.

Here's the scoop:
Remove the cover from the October 27 issue of People magazine. (Don't get People? Don't despair. You can still participate.)

Fold the cover inside out; then tape the sides to create an envelope. (For those without People, simply use a plain 8 1/2 x 11 or larger envelope.)

Fill the pouch with FIVE plastic Target bags.

Seal all sides of your homemade envelope and drop it in the mailbox by November 30, 2008. It is already postage paid and pre-addressed. (If you're sending a regular envelope, mail it to TerraCycle, 121 New York Avenue, Trenton, NJ 08638. Make sure it has a return address!)

Your coupon for a free recycled tote, redeemable at Target, should arrive in January 2009.

Need more info? Go to the official "Retote" website.

Happy recycling!

Wow - what an awesome idea! I always want to get these bags, but I never want to have to "buy" them. This is a great way to do it. Thanks for the tip!

Love it when big brands get hip to the fact that recycling is not a fad but here to stay.
