Win-It Wednesday: TerraCycle Back-To-School Prize Pack!

August 18, 2010 by Tara Kuczykowski 496 Comments

Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday. I’ll be posting 24-hour giveaways at 8 a.m., 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET to give you plenty of chances to win!


Every year BILLIONS of drink pouches, yogurt containers, candy wrappers and more end up in dumpsters and landfills across America. TerraCycle’s mission is to recycle these items into affordable, eco-friendly products. They’re making “upcycling” trendy with their adorable backpacks, binders, and lunch boxes!

Want to get paid for your trash? Join one of their FREE Brigades and TerraCycle will pay you per piece for sending them your non-recyclable waste materials.

One lucky Deal Seeking Mom reader will win a TerraCycle Prize Pack that includes the following:

  • Capri Sun lunch box
  • Billboard laptop case
  • Honest Kids 3 ring binder
  • Paper pens
  • (2) Capri Sun pencil cases
  • Capri Sun small tote
  • Doritos backpack
  • Circuit board coasters
  • Circuit board picture frame

To enter, tell me how your family gets environmentally friendly. Do you recycle as much as possible? Have you given up paper towels and instead opted for good old-fashioned cloth?

+++++++++++++++

    I think we are pretty green around here: we recycle as much paper, plastic, and glass as we can, we use cloth napkins, and I wash the laundry in cold water!

    some of the things our family does to help the enviroment are to freecycle our items that we no longer need, we use both a compost bin and a rain barrel, we reuse items for crafts, and we have ditched all paper type towels except baby wipes I have to have these.

    I try my best to keep my windows open for fresh air which saves on AC bills & I love hanging my clothes out to dry on the line. I’m a seamstress so I try to save all my fabric scraps & use them to make old clothes for cleaning or to dry on & not use paper hand towels.
    wonderful wednesday giveaway thanks :-)

    We recycle as much as possible. I definitely want to do more and teach my son to do more environmentally friendly things before he gets older.
