off-topic Are Refill Stations the Future of Zero-Waste Shopping?

I’ve started using refill stations for detergent, grains, and oil. It has reduced my plastic waste and even feels more economical.
Is this trend catching on in your area? Would you switch if you had access?

We don't have refill stations, our food and other products come in plastic packaging. However, they use thick plastic packaging so these plastics are recyclable.

I love the idea of this.

I would be on board if it ever became available where I am.

I used to use the K-cups for Coffee but they're so bad on the environment that I quit using them. Now I actually buy the beans in bulk and freeze them to keep them fresh. I grind them up as needed and I feel like I'm wasting less in the process. Doing little things is better than doing nothing, right?
