Trade In Old Christmas Lights For LEDs

With this weekend shaping up to be a nice and sunny one, it has many people thinking -- Christmas?! Yep, that's not a typo -- Christmas.

With temps in the 60s it may very well be the last warmish day of the year. That means it’s a perfect time for those die-hard decorators to start hanging lights outside and beat the below-zero temps that will soon be headed our way.

Well Home Depot wants to help you out. From now until Nov. 15 you can bring in your old, used, broken, or just burnt-out incandescent light strings and trade them in for a coupon for $3 off a new string of LED lights (Normally $5.97, but $2.97 after the coupon.)

LEDs use 80 percent less energy and can last much longer than normal lights -- and that means the lights basically pay for itself in savings this holiday season. The bonus is that Home Depot will recycle your old lights for you. Now that's some holiday spirit!
