Price Perks
One of the biggest obstacles in going green is the higher price tag of natural products. Though cost of these products are slowly coming down as more and more people invest in them, consumers can still find the extra amount difficult to absorb. You'll find that almost all Grassy Roots products are at or below the price of like products at your natural food store. Grassy Roots, however, offers the following perks:
No Sales Tax: In an effort to promote a greener lifestyle for all, Grassy Roots will pay your sales tax on all products, all orders, all the time!
No Shipping and Handling Charges when you have your orders shipped directly to a Grassy Roots Distributor for pick up or delivery within the designated delivery area. (see "Shipping")
40/40 Discount Program: Shop regularly and earn deeply discounted shopping sprees! Purchase an average of $40 in product for six consecutive months and you earn 40% off your entire next order up to $70! That's the equivalent of about $48 in free products every six months!
Freedom
No minimum order, joiners fee, or contract. Shop when you want, buy what you want!
Activism
Every dollar you spend is a vote! It is the single most powerful tool you have in expressing your opinions and values. When you shop Grassy Roots, you're confirmming that your environment is a cause you care about. Not only are you saying "no" to corporations that have little interest in anything more than the bottom line, you're saying "yes" to sustainable practices, fair trade, a cleaner environment, and a healthier body. Several of the brands sold on Grassy Roots offer a percentage of their proceeds to such causes. PLUS, the wholesale coop through which all Grassy Roots products are purchased offers a substantial amount of funding for the upstart of new natural food coops each year.
