I spent >30mins at my local BB - short(ish) version, in no particular order:
1. This doesn't show up in their internal ("Blue" something?) site under any kind of trade-in promo.
2. No one (right up to the Mgr) at the store knew anything about this.
3. This does show up under the Recycling take-ins page.
4. As indicated by others on this thread, it shows up under a cordless phone recycling take-in.
5. Even though the text of the promo itself states "storage device," the person helping me initially insisted that I therefore needed to turn in a cordless phone (she wasn't clear on whether it was in addition-to or in-lieu-of a storage device).
6. After further consultation with yet-more in-store personnel, they agreed that it simply meant a storage device, sans cordless phone.
7. Nobody knows why it's under a cordless phone recycling take-in.
8. They had to fill out a form for law enforcement indicating how my storage device being recycled was obtained, from where, approx when, and agreeing that I will not get it back.
9. I dunno if item 8 applies everywhere or was just a quirk where I live.
10. I had 4 "storage devices" with me and asked the intake person to choose which one they want to take (2x flash cards, 2x USB sticks).
11. They didn't seem to care which they take, which implies that flash cards are/were acceptable, at least at my location.
12. Everything above will likely need to be run through all over again each time someone else tries this.
13. The printed coupon does indeed state "SINGLE USE. In store only" and "Offer valid 8/8/2021 - 1/29/2023"
14. I did try the UPC string as an online code and it wasn't accepted (was worth a try)
Hope that helps someone!
I took a 4GB SD card to customer service, and after some messing around, they were able to get me a 15% coupon.
I grabbed a WD_BLACK SN750 1TB, on sale for $119.99. This is basically the lowest price from a regular retailer that I've seen. The kind employee that checked me out was a Supervisor, and the 15% coupon wouldn't scan. She did a manual override, because "you seem to know more about this than I do"
Monitors, in particular, contain lead (lbs of it for CRT) or mercury (LCD). https://earth911.com/recycling-guide/how-to-recycle-computer-monitors/

Went to BB and online to look for free recycle.
$25 per monitor or television.
Into the dumpster it went.
For those who thumbs down...did you ever look into a roll away dumpster in front of a house with fire or flood damage or remodeling.
Where do you think all that waste goes?
Recycled?
Nope.
Also, just watch any program about the truth in "recycling".
When China turns away our plastic, it gets dumped in the ocean.
When the WM recycle locations get dirty plastic or something that is not recyclable even though it has the symbol (they only recycle soda bottles and similar...easy plastic), the rest goes in the landfill.
Let's not even get started on the future of old solar panels in CA.
Don't take it to BB.
Sell them on eBay!
Plenty of PS1 and PS2 units sold for retro gamers, and they need the cards, and they will pay like $10 or more.
While your statements about some of recycling stories are true, I don't think it means that we should always have a distrust in recycling efforts. Some things are done for a reason when things can't be recycled but that doesn't mean that we should stop trying.
It specifies the SKUs (models) that qualify. They include both the original wired model with the blue thumb shelf and the updated wired version that's all black. I'm planning to try to get this offer at my local store as well, ~$70 for the Lightspeed version is a heck of a deal.
Edit: Here's the link to the actual offer terms. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/clp-...7488603859
Anyhow, rep who helped me redeem the Logitech recycling promo told me that the one time use coupons from trade in promos only apply to regular price items.
I got the Logitech G502 coupon and it is one time use in store only. I checked my receipt and the g502 wireless was on sale for $119.99 (on sale $30 off) and the coupon only took off an additional $20.
Might try to go to a different location and get and adjustment because the coupon doesn't mention that it doesn't stack. YMMV but this was my experience.

Also, does Tupperware count?

There needs to be a wiki posted once any employee can describe to one of us what they had to do to find it.
Actually they're listed under the 'Hazardous' category, but use the main search page (home page) and begin to enter fluor.... and 2 options for fluorescent light bulbs pop up in the drop-down list. Both compact fluorescent bulbs and tube-type also. See attached pic/screenshot.
Then just enter your zip code.
That's how I found 3 recycling centers near me that take fluorescent bulbs.

Local store wants $35 to recycle a monitor. Ridiculous. They should pay $35
