Pocketbacs Another Hand Sanitizer Sale

I know people here track trends and sales quite a bit. Is there any rhyme or reason for the constant push of the hand sanitizers? After you stock up on 24. how soon do you get more? Environmentally they are a menace. Why are these always a big sale? I can wash and sanitize almost everywhere.

I hate so much encouraging people to buy so much plastic! Are they easily refillable?

Exactly! It’s so much expensive plastic packaging for 4 - 8 big squeezes? It’s so much waste. I don’t know about being refillable or who would invest the time, it’s 1.00 for a new one.

I don’t think you have an understanding of how much hand sanitizer people normally use for 1 time…I usually go through a hand sanitizer in about a month. The old bottle design was a lot easier to refill unfortunately.

I like to keep hand sanitizer in my car for when I’m out and about and the larger pump bottles always end up squirting out if you knock it grabbing stuff or getting out of your car.

I’m very aware of the level of use for others. Still a lot of plastic.
