The Great Jean Trade-In Event

Guess where I’m heading this week? Preschool. Yes. Wegmans. Yes. The gym. Yes.

And this week, even though I try really, really hard to swear-off the mall, I’m [gulp] going. And I’m bringing my old jeans.

Through March 14, the Gap is is accepting old jeans, any condition, any brand. Bring your old denim to any Gap store to receive 30% off a new pair. Get this, you can do it multiple times. For every pair you bring to them, you’ll get 30% off a new pair. Its a one for one deal. (Gap card users get 35% off).

Gap is giving all used pairs to Bonded Logic, a company that uses cotton to create its Ultra Touch Natural Cotton Batt Insulation, an insulation that uses 85% post-industrial recycled natural fibers, like jeans, creating healthier and environmentally safer home  and industrial insulation.

This post was posted out of the goodness of my heart. Just wanted to share the discount, and the positive Gap vibe.
