Supersize your eco washing powder and get it for half price

While this may look like Ecover's first ever bag of potatoes, it's actually a huge 10kg refill pack of the green co's non-biological washing powder. As well as doing wonders for your biceps - I recommend 10 gentle lifts a day - it'll save you a stack of cash and cut down on packaging. The sums add up nicely. This bag costs a mere £27.50; the equivalent amount in weedy supermarket-sized 1.2kg boxes would set you back roughly £50. You can order yours from Ecotopia, which is also running a currently unique refill service. If you buy any bulk size (500ml+) plastic bottles of Ecover, Bio D or Clear Spring, it'll reimburse £2.50's worth of postage so you can post the empties back for reuse. Sounds to me like a win, win, win situation for you, landfill sites and Ecotopia.
