    awesome! I just scored 60 recyclebank points from this activity! Explore the kitchen and click on each plus sign, and there are several different things that will get you points. Looks like a different room in the house unlocks each week for you to explore to get more points, so check back again on 4/6, 4/13, 4/20, and 4/26!

    I’ve earned all the free points I can & have enjoyed redeeming them for free Kashi cereal and free Honest Tea, as well as free 7th Generation products.
    BUT….
    Be very careful if you actually send in items like cell phones to obtain points. They are actually handled by a totally different company, and when I sent a VZ cellphone, I got NOTHING in return.
    BE WISE & BEWARE.

    Just earned 75 points for this activity! It took me a while to join RecycleBank because my trash hauler doesn’t participate in the program and I didn’t think I would earn enough rewards to make it worthwhile. I was so wrong! And I love that, while earning points for great rewards, I learn so much about caring for the beautiful planet God created for us. Thanks, Collin, for sharing this site with us!

    I loved doing this activity! It gave me some good ideas. I am a total recycling Nazi (woe be unto he who places a recycleable item in my trash!), and I compost, reuse plastic bags, carry a glass bottle instead of using plastic water bottles, etc., and I love that I’m being rewarded and learning more now! Glad to know all my little efforts are adding up.

    FYI, I also noticed Recyclebank now has a referal link, so you get 10 points every time someone uses your link to sign up. I hope you’re taking advantage of that, Collin!

    I love recycle bank and have great experince with theie coke coupons, recently I redeemded the Mcdonalds buy a happy meal get a premium salad for free for 50 points. (i purchased 2) so far 3 Mcdonalds refused to take the coupon stating they do not have clearance to take them?????? I would not have wasted 100 points for this drama. I am thankful for the grocery coupons and love Recycle Bank. Has anyone else had problems with this coupon?

      85% of McDonalds are not Corporate owned, but independent franchises and this could be why….? : c

    Must be impaired. I can’t figure it out. Can someone provide a step by step. Clicked on enter contest. Played intro video. clicked on House plans. Nothing happens. Help!!

    • Jackie

      you can only click on the kitchen right now, so make sure you’re clicking on that area

    • Erin

      I couldn’t figure it out at first, either. Hover your mouse over the blueprint on the righthand side of the page so that it enlarges the blueprint on your screen. Then just click on the kitchen and the plus signs to play the games.
