Donate Your Old Denim to American Eagle for a Cause and a Discount!

If you have an old pair of jeans lying at the bottom of your drawer, you might consider making a stop at American Eagle this week to trade them in.

American Eagle has partnered up with the Cotton From Blue to Green organization to host their Old Jeans New Hope promotion.

For the rest of this week through Sunday, American Eagle is accepting old denim of any size, style or brand to be donated to UltraTouch Denim Insulation, which recycles old denim into insulation for homes in need. The best part is for donating your denim, you earn a 20 percent discount off your purchase that day!

So be sure to rummage through your closet to see what you may have lying around. It’s a great cause (not to mention a nice discount)  and you can clear out space for that new sweater you’ve been eyeing this fall.
