I know most of you probably have old CD and MP3 players, VCRs, etc., lying around your house or in the garage collecting dust. Instead of just throwing them away to end up leaching toxic chemicals into a landfill, why not go the eco-friendlier route and send them off to an electronics recycling center? What if you could also win a free cruise for two by recycling your old tech gadgets? GreenSite™ Recycling is giving people the chance to win a free cruise to the Bahamas just by doing something they already should be doing: turning in their obsolete tech to be recycled.
