This week/next The Hand Me Up Club is foregoing the usual event guide for a compendium of various Earth Day events, deals and discounts!
As always, much of this is NYC-specific, but many of these deals and discounts are offered nationwide, and I hope everyone in the club will have a chance to participate!
