Trade In Your Used Electronics For BOOKS!

If you’ve ever wondered whether you ought to spend more time reading and less time watching TV, the good folks at the brand new Spirit of ’76 Bookstore in Vinnin Square have a solution for you: This Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m., you can bring your old TVs , computers, stereos, etc., down to 450 Paradise Road, pay an ethical recycling fee of less than $1 per pound, and get a gift certificate to the bookstore that you can use--on the spot--to stock up on reading material, or just jumpstart your holiday shopping.

They took over from Borders and they are local and independent--help them get started!
