Got some new gizmos
Got some new gizmos over the holidays? Don't chuck out the old ones. If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, you can donate pretty much anything that's electronic to the Alameda County Computer Recycling Center. Donate before Jan 1 to claim a deduction on this year's taxes.
And if you have an old cell phone or two (or three) lying around, you can mail them off to Collective Good. Some of the programs that this recycling group partners with, like Working Assets, offer free shipping labels online.
