Soap on Tap - Now Available in Livorno (Or is it?)

For those of us who are worried about all the ecologically unsound plastic packaging which comes with many of the products we buy these days, there is good news: it is now possible to buy washing liquids 'on tap' in Livorno, at a shop called Mille Bolle Point in Via Goldoni 4 (off Via Maggi).

This welcome addition to Livorno's city centre will mean we can now take our own recycled containers and fill them up with our chosen detergents, and also hopefully saving a few cents at the same time.

Does anyone know how much it costs? It would be interesting to do a price comparison.

See this article (in Italian) about the shop

Where is Mille Bolle Point?

Can anyone tell me where Mille Bolle Point is? The address I was given appears to be wrong as I went down there this morning to buy my soaps, and couldn't find it!!

It's there, I just wasn't looking in the right place!

It does exist - Mille Bolle Point in Via Goldoni, LivornoIt does exist - Mille Bolle Point in Via Goldoni, LivornoOk, I've finally located Mille Bolle Point. It is indeed in Via Goldoni, but in the section of the road that goes off to the left of Via Maggi when coming from Piazza Cavour. So Via Goldoni 4, as previously communicated. Unfortunately it was closed when I was there on Saturday afternoon, but here's a photo to prove its existence.
