LI spirtis very $$$$

When I saw on T.V LI spirits a LI distillery making hand sanitizer I was excited and thought I'd love to buy and support, However, i will say it really rubbed me the wrong way to find out one 8 oz bottle is $10.00. It feels like price gauging and really turned me off.

I'm finding all the hand sanitizers that I see on like Facebook and Instagram ads or from local producers are highly overpriced.
I guess you can look at it as supply and demand but I just can't bring myself to pay that for hand sanitizer

Are they donating proceeds to charity or something? Otherwise that's awful and I wouldn't buy it. Sure, charge a fair price but I'm pretty sure alcohol sales are booming so they're probably doing ok business wise.

Bath and Body works little ones are 1 oz. Those are 5 for $8 so 5 oz for $8. I don't think $10 for 8 oz is bad at all.

I was running out and bought a 17oz Hempz brand at Staples for $15. Makes me pine for the days of 10 oz Dollar Tree hand sanitizer. Chat Icon

Very true.

Is the distillery stopping/slowing production of anything to mass produce this? Bc they have to financially make it worthwhile for themselves too.

I dont know if they are donating. My cousin lives in Brooklyn and the distillery there is making sanitizer and giving it out for free. They ask for a donation of at least $1.00 which pays for the bottle
