    I got a B-D Home Sharps container at Wal-mart. I think it ran about $14. The thing I do is cut off the needle on the slin pins into the sharps container with wire cutters. The needle doesn't take up much room so you get a lot more use out of the container. You can also take the needles off your juice syringe to save space.

    put them in a plastic container with a top and discard them in the trsh. Make sure it is not going to poke through and possibly stick someone.

    Put 'em in a jug, and when it's full fill it with plaster of paris (concrete would work, too). Let it harden overnight. No muss, no fuss.
