it does seem crazy to create something and then to say “AND now how amazing are we?….look….we recycle”

I actually agree with most of the negative comments. But I don’t think the comments were needed on this post. This post was just helping ppl to recycle them if they wish

Too many people have got too many things to say. Like the other lady said you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t.

My only problem with taking them to a Woolworths recycle site is I’m 200kms away from my nearest store. I think it’s a great idea to save on landfill. Good on you Woolworths

I too think that there are some kids you could find who would love them.

I find we live in a society now that thrives on outrage. People find an excuse to be outraged about anything and everything. It’s actually become laughable.

There are probably heaps of children that would gladly have them.

All for sharing a public service announcement on a potentially little known recycling initiative!

If they didn’t do this imagine the outrage, honestly no one can win anymore- damned if you do and damned if you don’t, this world is turning totally insane

If there is no recycling plan for them they will end up in landfill, so there is no real reason to get out raged

I think this recycling plan is a great idea. Seems people will get angry about anything.

Good idea for anyone wanting to recycle.

Though I am personally against them myself I do think that Woolies is doing the right thing by offering up the recycling thing. But I can imagine people just throwing all sorts of thing in there so it might backfire.

I am pleased to find out that these can be recycled and not end up in the tip over time.

People need to think about what they are saying might do to someone else and what they’re trying to achieve by saying it. No point in the comments about not liking them on her post it’s aimed at people who have them and surely it’s better to encourage them to recycle them rather than throw them away.

it is a great idea, but in the case of the abusers just say no at the register! My kids are loving these and play with them each day. If you don’t like them then don’t take them! Stop ruining the fun for everyone! I can’t afford to get my kids too many treats but these are great little treats for them

  I agree, I use them as a little reward too. When you don’t want them don’t take them and when you’re finished with them give them away or recycle them.

After reading the comments I think great to recycle but they recycle plastic bags too and don’t give these away for free yet they are more useful as you are more likely to reuse a bag then do something with an Ooshies. still I would prefer having that money off the bill rather than declining toys.

I think it’s a great idea.

At least woolies is giving an option. I’ve got quite a few doubles which I’d happily donate.

wow this is odd with some responses
