July 28, 2009: Being tech savvy people, every year we change our cell phones. Now comes the tricky part. What do we do with our old cell phones - dump them? No way!

Then we put our phone along with its manual and accessories in a box, pasted the FREE UPS label on the box and dropped it off at a UPS drop box.
