The Boho Bodega, an eco-friendly pop-up shop on Lafayette Street in Soho, is open for 2 more days, so get on over there this weekend! The small shop is selling organic and responsibly produced toiletries, cosmetics, and food items for 40% off retail, including items like Green Forest toilet paper and paper towels ($0.99-$2.69), Twist Naked Sponges ($0.99), Kiss My Face bath products, and Planet detergents and dishwashing soaps. All the proceeds go to charity, too...
The idea is to make eco-friendly products more accessible and affordable to the general public. We picked up a few Twist sponges and an organic Kiss My Face lip gloss. They had Kombucha for $2.69 a bottle (a great deal if you drink Kombucha), and a few food stuff items like granola and spices.
The place is open from 8 am until 10 pm. It's cash only, but they have an ATM in the shop and even the $0.99 ATM fee goes to charity.
Check it out at 220 Lafayette Street in between Broome and Spring.

Is it closing for good?

Marcelebrate, it's only a temporary set up. They call it a "pop up" shop because it'll only be open for 5 days...total! It's a short retail venture by a nonprofit to help raise some money for charity.

They should add hand held Bathroom Bidet Sprayers = almost eliminates the need for toilet paper. Available at www.bathroomsprayers.com these sprayers are clean, green and soon may even save you money on your taxes.
