25 Ways To Offload Your Old TV


So you want a new big-screen HDTV, but you’ve got just one problem: you need to get rid of your old piece-of-crap TV first so that you have an excuse to get the TV of your dreams. Now you could just donate your old TV to charity, recycle it, or sell it (even though it’s probably worthless) – but what fun is that?

Why not take out some of your built-up stress and aggression on that TV by destroying it! Trust me, there’s no better stress reliever than watching an old crappy TV get burned, shot, smashed, run-over, or dropped off a cliff. You know what they say - out with the old, in with the new. So check out these creative ways to ‘offload’ your old TV thereby giving you sufficient reason to buy the new one.

1. If you don’t mind a little dent in your truck, how about using it to run your old TV over. These guys even give you 2 angles, for your viewing pleasure.

2. If you thought that first clip was a little weak – how about a bigger truck, and a bigger TV = better result!
