It’s the most wonderful time of the year … for retailers. This Black Friday, consumers are expected to spend $148 billion on in-store and online purchases. Everyone loves Black Friday — standing in hour-long lines for a 50% discount, getting your workout in while walking through the mall and leaving with 12 bags of new outfits at 3 a.m. But are you really going to use all those appliances and wear all those clothes?

It’s official. The results of RecycleMania are in.

RecycleMania is an eight-week recycling competition between colleges in the United States and Canada, according to the tournament’s website. Schools report the amount of recycling and trash collected each week and are ranked in various categories. This year the contest was from Feb. 3 to March 30. The results were released Friday.
