Would You Pay $20 For A Bar Of Soap If It Was Made Using A Bike?





$19.00
Bike-Blended Soap
Our mild and moisturizing cold-process soap is handmade using only vegetable and essential oils, organic herbs and spices and ... bike power! A unique invention that pairs a bicycle power train with a soap-mixing vat lets our soap makers literally pedal their way through every batch without electricity, synthetic scents or chemical hardeners. Cured for two months, each 100- natural bar is a long-lasting source of rich, gentle lather. Gift box of 5 3.5 oz. bars features Lavender Rosemary, Lemongrass Ginger, Cinnamon Clove, Oatmeal Honey and Lavender Avocado soaps. USA.

$20 for a bar of soap because it was made by some illegal riding a bike instead of a mixer plugged into the wall?????

The phrase "There's a sucker born every minute." seems to apply here.

Mike, have you found the 'weirdness site'? I'm really going to buy soap because it's Amish.

Sidenote here. A woman was pushing all natural goats milk soap here a loooooong time ago and it turns out that this, or something similar, is recommended by doctors for radiation patients. We have ordered.

You never know what you'll find on this site.
