Gap’s Recycle Your Blues Campaign Returns: Donate your old denim, get 30% off on new 1969 blues

By  | 
The recycling containers are returning to your local Gap Store.  Yes, the Gap Recycle Your Blues campaign is coming back starting this Wed, Oct. 6.  From October 6th through October 20th., you can donate old denim that will then be given a “new life” by being converted into UltraTouch natural cotton fiber insulation and donated to communities in need.  The two-week denim drive is part of Gap’s Recycle Your Blues event, where customers who donate denim will receive 30 percent off new 1969 denim purchases from Gap through Oct. 20th.  And, my understanding is it can be any denim that you donate, not just denim purchased from the Gap.  I am putting together a big old bag today of all my beyond repair thread worn jeans in sizes I don’t wear anymore.  I love the idea that my old jeans could be turned to insulation to help keep someone warm.  With that incentive, I will clean my closet!
The in-store program is featured on Gap’s YouTube Channel. Be sure and check it out on Facebook and maybe become a fan if you like the Gap’s products. Facebook Fans will get an additional 40% off from Gap according to the YouTube Video for the campaign.  Click here to watch Gap’s super cute viral YouTube Video on the campaign.
