      You can make those with zero waste items. I garden and make all that stuff from scratch. Get ya some chickens to make mayo. Most cities/towns allow backyard chickens. Permits are usually free! Then you can also make cash off the eggs.

      @@MariaMedina-mv9qf the bulk food isle is just swapping buying small plastic containers for larger plastic containers less often. Not the goal but still a good option if you cant purchase containerless items in bulk. (But you also prove my point to the original commenter that people cant always see "how it would work")

      @shayslay3416 4 роки тому +81

      In a way, this might be better. Because if you have a budget of, let's say, $20 for household items, you decide how much of each you need. You can spend $7 on body wash since you use it the most, $2 on dish soap and just decide to wash when the sink is full, $3 on shampoo, $3 on conditioner, and $5 on laundry detergent. It's all subjective because you pick the quantity.
      It takes me FOREVER to go through dish soap because it's just me, but I always run through body wash. So in this situation I'd fill a bigger container of body was and like 4oz of dish soap lol.

      I dont think this would happen. If you think about starbucks or whole foods or trader joes for example, these places actually give you a small discount as a reward for bringing your own reusable cups/grocery bags. Companies dont care what you bring to refill because the real money is in the product your actually paying for, not the container its in. Also, they would actually save money by spending less on "disposable" containers because they wouldn't have to make as many.

    I love the idea. It just goes to show we all can do something. I think it's a good idea to purchase cloth napkins and dish towels. I use them instead of paper towels. I also cut back on the amount of soap I buy. I have found one all purpose soap (Ivory) and I use it for everything but washing my hair.

    Fortunately, a refill shop just pop up in a neighborhood near me. Though they only sell liquid dishwashing soap, fabric conditioner, laundry soap, hand soap, and a bit of others. AND the price point is really low. Only 26-30 pesos a liter, which is around half dollar/liter.

      A lot of times if they are specific stores dedicated to zero waste, they will ensure that companies will refill the jugs before they sell their product in their store.

      Enigma Productions True, but then the factory would have to buy even larger amount of ingredients to make the large bottles for companies and refill for people who want refills. So it’s not bad if the owner just buys the large bottle.

      @@o.o7299 I don't know about America but in most factories those big bottles can be returned to the factory at least in my country we can. When they bring in a new delivery they pick the empty containers and recycle themselves no need to throw in the dump. We don't have a perfect system for trash and cleanliness but when dealing with the factory directly you avoid trash

    At LUSH stores you can find shampoo bars, so there’s no packaging, and of course for body products, there’s package-free soap, deodorant, and body butter bars that melt into your skin. And they have incentives for customers who bring back their plastic containers for the company to recycle/reuse.
