What to do with old cell phones?

[BDHG940]

What do you all do with your old cells phones?

[CRed05]

Store them in the basement :dumb:

 

I just got a text message from t-mobile where they will give you $100 for any working cellphone if you sign up for a contract. I think I saw other carriers are doing the same thing.

[EGOKILLER]

I give them to my kids to play with.

I give them to my kids to play with.

 

We do too, my 4 YO daughter has a iPhone 3GS as an iPod.

[jeffro]

give them to jones, he has a big collection of them.

 

Or sell them on CL depending on how old they are.

[V8 Beast]

Donate and sell to bums on CR.. by bums on CR I mean CR members that are bums so I sell them to them as they are bums and not the charity I give the other phones to.

[iwashmycar]

I usually recycle the really old ones and keep the last one or two to reactivate if I break my primary.

 

For example my wife is horrible with phones. 2 months left, and her Palm just sort of let go (mind you it has been replaced under warranty). I just pulled out my old Eris (lol) that I used for over 2 years w/o a case, and is still minty clean.

Their website is terrible, and there are local shelters you can donate too as well, but im too lazy and sick right now to lazywebz for you.

I keep them for emergency phones in my cars and in the safe room in our home. And by safe room I mean the place where Jodi Foster lives in my condo.

Cell phones make horrible weapons (sans 80's "portable phones")

They should donate knives & guns instead, far more useful against an abusive spouse.

[Mattsv8]

sell them on ebay profit.

Yes. I've sold all my old phones via Gazelle. Don't make a ton of money but its quick and easy.

Yea, you can have them (only a few w/out data).

[Forrest Gump 9]

I keep them in my car so I can throw them at those jackass drivers (how dare they pass me).

[BloodRed]

Donate them to women's shelters.
