Convert your TRASH into CASH!

I was just browsing through articles and posts online and this one got me curious. I went to SM’s FB fanpage and saw this reminder:

I, then, followed their page to know more about this cause and these are what I’ve gathered:

• The following items are accepted:
  1. Scrap Paper and cardboards
  2. Plastic bottles and plastic scraps
  3. Aluminum/Tin cans
  4. Polystyrene and styrofoam (selected venues only)
  5. Old Appliances! Yup, that’s right! One follower posted this as a question and SM Cares confirmed that they do accept these items too
     
• You can bring these items at any SM branch (open parking area) every FIRST Friday and Saturday of the month, from 8AM to 2PM only.
• These items will be checked can be exchanged for cash! (Think of a junk shop where you sell your trash)

As I continue my research, I’ve found out that this has been existing for years already. Why is it just now that I’ve learned about this?! Well, I guess it still isn’t too late.
Kudos to those who have already participated in this cause. And to those who haven’t yet, I guess we can now start cleaning up those mess and run to any SM branch near you!
