A refillery just opened in my town this past weekend, where you take your own containers and can buy a range of products in bulk - from food, to cleaning supplies, to pet needs. I think it's a super cool concept; I went in to check it out and was impressed by the range of products they had. I had just run out of dish soap so was looking specifically at that. They were charging about $0.34/oz, which if my math is correct, is about double what I would pay at Costco for dish soap. I understand that shopping sustainably is always going to come with an upcharge, and I want to be as sustainable and limit waste as much as possible, but how do you justify paying nearly double? Any discussion or insights would be much appreciated!

This roll-on applicator for biofreeze has been amazing, but now that it's almost empty I wish there was a way to refill it! Anyone have any thoughts on how I could get this ball out without damaging it (at least too much)?

does anyone have suggestions for good shampoo/conditioner bars? or some sort of other zero waste shampoo & conditioner alternative? i have long, fine 1a hair.
