  • Wow thanks!

    I've just received £28 worth of Boots Advantage Card points for recycling my old Nokia which I was about to throw away. I went to their website (www.boots.com/recycle) and they sent me a freepost envelope so that I could send my phone to them.

    It was dead easy so thanks for the recommendation! Now I've got all my points to spend before I go on holiday next month. Can't wait!

    how does this offer compare to the various 'cash for phones' recycling sites?

    There's a great article http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/phones/mobile-recycling
    I'm leaning towards tesco for my old phone - they give 300 clubcard points and a gift card - was worth more to me than Boots offered
  • i have an empty colour cartridge and an empty black cartridge for lexmark X1180 printer.
    cartridges are number 27 and number 17

    how do i know if they take these?
    :T Thanks to all lovely MSE'rs - you are great friends :T

    Hi, Just checked out the advantage card machine and got a promo code when recycling a mobile, Enter "kiosk1" in the promo box for an additional 100 advantage card points!
    nice extra bonus.
  • This is a brilliant find, thank you! I was just about to send my old ink cartridge back to Dell to be recycled, but for no thanks or incentive other than being a bit greener, now I can be green and have Boots points too! :T
    If I had a pound for every...... oh sod it, if I just had a pound I'd be richer!
  • Any idea why Epson cartridges are so unpopular? no-one seems to want them.
