Quick Tip – Recycle your old iPod & MAC

Don’t throw out your ipod or MP3 player when it stops working – You can recycle it! Apple’s Recycling Program offers a 10% discount on your next purchase when you bring your old iPod in for recycling.  You can also recycle old cell phones, old computer systems and Macs!

If you’re in the market to buy new electronics, Apple also sells refurbished iPods & MACs.  Try buying a ‘reincarnated’ one over a new to save some green.
