My local freebie newspaper featured the poppy sellers at the local Sainsbury's store and mentioned the recycling programme. If you've wondered what to do with your poppy then all Sainsburys stores are offering the recycling service, so it's a great way to continue supporting a very worthy cause. As I discovered yesterday, the modern poppy is very easy to take apart and reassemble. Well done to the Royal British Legion for being eco-friendly! JuliaP
Would be a great idea, only flaw is my other half likes to wash hers Clive
I heard people are sending their poppies to FIFA.... Thanks, Rebecca CV and blog writer Pay for Precision | Saving you time by writing you kick-ass blogs and CVs.
I searched and searched for a metal 1 this year and eventually got 1 but only at the expense of a lovely lady who wouldn't take no for a answer after I said I was looking for the metal type.Needless to say I emptied my wallet after that
Maybe I'm missing something on this, but the poppy comes in 3 parts all 3 parts are recyclable, why does Sainsbury need to get involved with recycling... Just pop it in the recycle bin at home.. Thanks, Barney
“Maybe I'm missing something on this, but the poppy comes in 3 parts all 3 parts are recyclable, why does Sainsbury need to get involved with recycling... Just pop it in the recycle bin at home..”
Good point Barney! However, recycling differs from area to area. Mine won't take foil (food containers) but the neighbouring area does. As I take my rubbish to local tip instead of having ugly wheelie bins, I've got to know what they will and won't take. Interestingly their latest recycling figure is only around 65% so still a long way to go..... I suppose Sainsbury is just doing what M&S does with recycling boxes for Christmas cards and old clothes.
