Is there a way to make money on these? We still to have loads lying round the house. Some of them are really old though and probably don't have boxes for them.

    Read Martin's advice and make a few bob, or try eBay.

    Good Luck
  • I saw my old phone for 30 odd quid on ebay, so that's going on. We also sold some really old bricks :D at a car boot sale a couple of weeks ago.

    if you are going to use envirophone, go through quidco to order your envelopes, theres over a quid cash back through them too.
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind

    use these http://www.mopay.co.uk/ they pay you for old mobile phones no matter what condition.
    I had an old Sony Erricson T610 lying about plus another acient one. Got £16 ish for my T610 and £2.50 for the other one.
    Easy money! and it helps the planet!
  • If you're saving the Tesco vouchers you can also send them off in their green envelopes (in store or I had to ask them to send me some via the tesco website).

    You receive 250 points for yourself (equivalent to £10 in tokens) and £2.50 gos to a charity you choose on the envelope.
  • Envirofone will also give you a bit more if you get Argos vouchers, good for Christmas pressies!
  • i have used envirophone but they have had my phone for about a month now and no cheque has come back :( but they have said my money is approved... i didnt go for argos vouchers as it was only £1.99 if this one works i will send my latest one :D but as lynz says do it though quidco you can get an extra few bob :D
