What to do with your Old, Ripped, Stained clothing? I found this to be interesting

The answer is to take your nonservicable clothing to the Goodwill or Salvation Army.

When they get donations of clothes that are too worn to re-sell in their shops, these organizations send the clothing to "rag sorters" that specialize in recycling fabrics of all types and sizes. About half the clothing gets sold in developing countries, while garments like cotton t-shirts are turned into wiping and polishing clothes and sold to industries and consumers. Some textiles are shredded into fibers used to make new products, such as fine quality "rag" paper, and blankets." http://dld123. com/q&a/index.php? category= Textiles

Why Choose LED Holiday lights?

Light emitting diodes, or LEDs are small light sources that are exceptionally energy-efficient when producing individual colors, many using up to 90% less energy to produce the same amount of light.

Nov 8 & 9 ONLY, HOME DEPOT is offering $3 off the purchase of LED holiday lights/products for every used/broken incandescent string of lights you turn it.
