As long as I’ve been married to my husband we have always recycled. For years we have put recycled products in the blue bin and taken it outside on trash day for it to be picked up. We had been brainstorming for ways to make extra quick cash. In the past my husband and I never really thought about recycling for cash, but now we said lets give it a try. Let’s see if it works, so we started to keep the plastic bottles that our local recycling center would accept. On our first time we made a few buck, approximately $7 dollars and change. To my surprise my local recycling center did not accept milk gallons. I had to take those back home and put them in the recycling bin to take out on trash days.
Our second time doing this we went to a different recycling center further away from our home but not too far, just 10 minutes away. My husband unloaded all the plastic into this container that the recycling center provides you with. This time we made about $18 dollars. At this point I said, “Wow”! I couldn’t believe it. With this kind of returns we decided to stick with it.
Today my husband and daughter went to the recycling center and made $16.74. It’s awesome!!!! With that money we treated ourselves out to ea. tWe had fun going out to eat and we got to spend some more time together.
