Now through Saturday, March 24, Target is giving you the opportunity to recycle your old denim jeans and get a new pair–for a discounted price. All of the details on how to score this sweet, sweet deal are below.
Target and I:Collect teamed up to make the earth a little greener with their denim recycling program. Right now, select Target stores are encouraging customers to trade in their old denim jeans to score a 10% off coupon on a new stylish pair.
If you’ve been eyeing a new spring denim trend, this is the perfect way to stock up on fresh styles while saving money–and the earth.
Here’s exactly how it works:
To trade in your old jeans, see the Guest Service Desk at Target. There, an employee will collect the denim and give you a coupon in return. The deal is good for all long denim jeans, whether they’re in men, women, or kids styles. The only exception is no short denim. There is also a maximum of four coupons per household.
After you trade in your denim, I:Collect sorts through the donations. Some jeans are reused and sold as second-hand clothing, if they’re in pristine condition. Other worn pairs of jeans are recycled into other textile products. They can be repurposed as insulation, carpet padding, yarn, or furniture stuffing in the industrial industry.
Before lugging all of your outdated jeans to your local Target, give the customer service desk a call and make sure the Target x I:Collect recycling offer is valid at that location.
Scroll down to look at just a few of the new Target denim styles you can buy for 10% off, in return for recycling your old pair.
Women's High-Rise Raw Hem Straight Jeans - Universal Thread™ Light Wash ($27.99)
Promising review: "These fit PERFECTLY! They are really comfortable and don’t gap at the waist."
Women's High-Rise Tie Front Wide Leg Jeans - Universal Thread™ Medium Wash ($27.99)
Promising review: "Love the style. I don’t wear tight denims so I like how they are wide legged. Run small in the waist and the rise is a bit short but look great with the correct size. I’m. 5’4” and they don’t overwhelm me."
Women's High-Rise Raw Hem Straight Jeans - Universal Thread™ Light Wash ($27.99)
Promising review: "These jeans are very comfortable, and just like other reviewers have noted they have a perfect amount of stretch. I have a hard time finding jeans that fit both my waist and my hips, but these did the job. I sized down like I do with most clothing from Target. By far my favorite jeans, and the price is a bargain for the quality you get."
Women's High-Rise Straight Jeans - Universal Thread™ Medium Wash ($27.99)
Promising review: "Obsessed with these! They are already easily one of my favorite pairs of jeans and so affordable. I'm a size 6, around 140 ish pounds, and 5'5". They fit perfectly, are flattering, and feel comfortable enough I can chase my toddler around in them. Yay!!"
