Cannot get enough of this store. Been shopping here for a few years now. Any ingredient I can get here I do get here because it's zero-waste AND high quality. They regularly expand their wares too.

I love this place and the mission. I need to say for the record, though, that I am not sure that paying 350% more for bubble bath and dish soap is going to really make zero-waste accessible to your average people. Isn't the idea that buying in bulk makes things cheaper? I am VERY happy to pay more to reduce waste and support this kind of a store, maybe I'd even happily pay twice as much. But my kid's bubble bath costs $8 at Jewel and the refill at Eco Flamingo cost $27.5. Is this really how it has to be?

Hi April! I just had a look and there was an incorrect price on your bubble bath as we were able to get it from a different maker (medium sized maker vs very small) recently and the price went down by 40. I’m very sorry about the confusion. Please email us at hello@theecoflamingo.com and we’ll sort out a refund for the mistake! While it still won’t beat the super low prices of the big names, it will definitely be a lot better price. That being said, we try do our very best to be as affordable as possible without compromising our values. Products from smaller companies that use quality ingredients and are made by fairly paid people really struggle compete in price unfortunately. But I will say that our collaboration soap line (not sure if thats the dish soap you got) of hand, dish and laundry all compete and are often lower than Mrs. Meyers, 7th Gen and the like. Also many of our food products are competitive and often less expensive for the same quality than other stores. If you ever need any assistance or have any questions please feel free to reach out anytime!

The Eco Flamingo has helped me lead a more sustainable life! I love that I can bring my own container and fill up on dry goods and only get the amount I need. I have actually saved money by doing this! They also offer classes and community conversations and are active members of the neighborhood. The staff is always helpful and kind. Whenever I have friends in from out of town, I bring them here because it's a fun shop with such unique and creative items. Everyone should check them out!
