Batteries and What to do with them

While visiting my Uncle for my 2-year-old cousin this weekend, he showed me a mason jar full of old batteries and asked where I had been recycling mine. I noted that now that my daughter is 11, I don't have so many batteries to recycle, but promised to find a place close-by. As it turns out, it is so much easier than I would have thought. Apparantly every Staples and Best Buy in the area takes computers, electronics, and that's right.....batteries. It is, of course, always advisable to purchase rechargeable batteries though to cut down even furhter on waste.
