Always fun shopping at Wacko! Their bath and body products are the best! I hope they don’t discontinue all of the products. They already stopped carrying the massage lotion and I just found out there will no longer carry the shea butter body wash. Bummed but hope they’ll have new products that are equal in moisturizing. They’re doing a great job of keeping their store and shoppers safe during the pandemic. Thank you! We’ll keep coming back!
