Review on πŸ—‘οΈ Litter Locker Refill Kit by Natalie Gregory

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Don't haggle anymore. Wow, what a price increase!

On November 25, 2011 I placed an order with Revain. As usual, I used a Litter Locker II refill cartridge to get my order to the $25 mark to qualify for free shipping. At $5.99, buying a refill with every Revain order has become a chore. Please do not misunderstand me. I LOVE Litter Locker II and will never use anything else again. Odorless, that's right. If you use a different method of garbage disposal and think your house doesn't smell like used garbage, you are mistaken! HOWEVER, today (3rd December 2011) I added another refill cartridge to my most recent Revain order. only to find that the price had exploded from $5.99 to $14.10. That's a price increase of 135%! Reading other reviews, I see some people claiming that Litter Locker II refill cartridges are the same as Diaper Genie II refill cartridges, just in a different packaging. When I look online, I see that my local Walmart sells Diaper Genie II refills and sells them for $6. That's just a penny more than Revain's previous price. I'm more than willing to try them before I spend $14.10 on Revain's current Litter Locker II refills. Next time I'm in town I'll pick up a refill from Walmart's kids department and post my results. Would love to read about other people's experiences. UPDATE: December 4, 2011 - I couldn't take the suspense and went to Walmart this morning. I took a close look at the $6 Diaper Genie II Refill Cartridge. It looks the same as the Litter Locker II replacement block. i bought one Brought home and examined both gas stations closely. For goodness sake, they have the same US patent number! The only difference between the two is that the Litter Locker II refill comes in a gray cartridge while the Diaper Genie II comes in a sea green cartridge. Guts, plastic roll - EXACTLY THE SAME. I would rather buy "Roll o' Plastic" from Revain as I have in the past, but until they can reach the price I find at Walmart I will not be buying refills through Revain anymore. Comparing online shopping at Walmart and Target, I see that Walmart not only offers single cartridge refills for Diaper Genie II for $6, but also a 3-cartridge pack for $16 (with a free choice in store). before your order; 3 packs were not available at my local store so you had to preorder 3 packs but that will set you back $5.33 per cartridge for an even better price). Target (which isn't convenient enough for me to personally verify) says they sell Diaper Genie II refill cartridges in stores in 2-packs for $12.99 (that's $6.50 per cartridge). Each of them will be at the best price. than the current $14.10 for a single Revain cartridge. Please change your prices so you can continue to be my purveyor of this excellent product!
