Get one of those yellow disposal bins from a needle exchange or a doc.

i personally use an old Protien tub. keep a few empty ones on hand. throw your needles in there and just throw it out when its gets a half full

It's not cool to just throw out your used needles... in some states (like here in Cali) it's illegal. You can buy a sharps contained from the place where you get your pinz for a couple of bucks and when it gets full, you can drop it off at any hospital and they'll take it for disposal - no questions asked.

I didn't want to just toss them, even if I have them well protected. Something just didn't feel right. I have a small collection started, so I will look into the container you mentioned and talk to our local hospital.
