Electronics Recycling at MacSpecialist
If driving to West Chicago this Saturday isn’t your cup of tea, MacSpecialist in Villa Park is hosting a big electronics recycling event as well. Drop off some old computers or monitors, pick up a coupon on some Mac gear, help the planet, get some food, and enjoy some music.
Now isn’t that better than staying home all day?
From their announcement:
The Place:
MacSpecialist, 234 West Roosevelt Road, Villa Park, IL (In the Villa Oaks Shopping Center behind Guitar Center)
