Don't buy a new plastic spray pump every time you need a refill. Instead, buy cleaning products in the largest possible containers and refill your action pumps as and when you need to. There are other products you can get in bulk and decant so you won't be buying unnecessary packaging, such as food items like spices or rice or health-and-beauty products like shampoo or body wash.

I've always practiced this since I got married. From our cooking oil, to our cleaning agents (baking soda and vinegar), to our sauces, rice, and spices, I go large. It's not really bad to go for products in smaller containers if they're not used as often. Of course, we also want to avoid spoilage to happen. Going large is more applicable to those that we use or consume on a daily basis. That's why, for my 100% Natural Products, I DO intend to offer them in larger containers for those who want to simply refill. Do watch out for them!
