As you might guess, “pantcycling” is the act of recycling pants. From April 16 to 25, pantcycling is also a way to get $5 off a new pair of pants at Sears.
In honor of Earth Day, Haggar and Sears offer a Pantcycling promotion: Now through April 25, if you donate any pair of gently used pants at a Sears store, you’ll receive a $5 discount on a new pair of Haggars.
What do prices at the pump have to do with prices at the used car lot? They actually tend to mimic each other. Higher gas prices tend to cause drivers to want to spend less out of pocket on their automobiles. That means rising demand, as well as rising prices, for used cars—fuel-efficient used cars especially. Used car prices spiked last summer as gas prices soared, and then spiked again earlier this year as the national average neared $4 a gallon. Now that gas prices are retreating, relief is also in sight for consumers in the market for used cars.
The best argument for going green is that it’ll help conserve natural resources and money at the same time. The new breed of “green” supercars led by Ferrari and Porsche doesn’t really do either.
