If you can't find a place to donate them, make sure you recycle them. The chemicals in the batteries are not something you want in a landfill.

also Blacks recycles them. check CNN out today for information where the un-wanted products of them get shipped too :(

I saw a show where they were talking to a "collectable" expert. They asked him what he thought might be worth saving now, what are the everyday things we have now that may become more valuable in the future.

He said that things become collectable because they become rare. Hardly anyone kept their old hockey cards, so they became rare. He said that old cell phones may also be worth something some day because everyone just throws them out.

Ten, twenty or thirty years from now, people may want to have a cell phone just like they had when they were younger. Kind of like how people want to have their old cars back. Who knows?

I got too much junk already to start saving anything else, but I thought I would pass that along.

I am a Security Guard at Xwave and they have a donation box for cell phones and ink cartridges and they donate them to a charity I think it's called Mira, I know theres a picture of a little girl on the sign.<TABLE id=HB_Mail_Container height="100%" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0 UNSELECTABLE="on"><TBODY><TR height="100%" UNSELECTABLE="on" width="100%"><TD id=HB_Focus_Element vAlign=top width="100%" background="" height=250 UNSELECTABLE="off">
