I am curious what everyone does with their old bulbs they have replaced?
I think I have a dozen or more of old PC's and flourescents and wasn't sure if I should just toss them in the trash or give them away somewhere?

Tried a search but couldn't locate anything.
Everyone else just toss 'em in the garbage?

LOL, EBAY , that's funny.

I wasn't sure if people gave em to local shops for some odd reason or the homeless to carry around as light sabers.

I always like to have a spare. I doubt the homeless would use as light sabers! I would keep what the wife would let ya! Just in case a bulb goes bad never know

I'd think if you had a lot of them lying around you should drop them off at a hazardous collection site. Some of the materials used certainly should not be put into our landfills if avoidable.

I use them as targets for my tater gun. They blow up nice.

I agree wholeheartedly.

probably a good idea, I'll have to look into that as I think now I have counted 20 or more from 3 feet on up.
