My Favorite Etsy: Money Soap

This post was a little harder to make. I decided I would go through my etsy purchases and pick something I wanted to showcase. I found the hair detangler I bought once and really loved but the shop doesn't make that anymore.
So I scrolled down and spotted money soap that I bought for my niece one year. That seller doesn't sell the money soap anymore either, so...
Here's another example I found a few days ago. I put it on my favorites list because I figured one day I'd try this soap for myself.
What is money soap? It's money in a plastic bag and soap base is poured over it.
Would you ever buy this?

@ScribbledAdNauseum Yeah it is definitely like playing the lottery you never know what you are going to get.

There might be cheaper options than just this one. I think I spent around $20.00 for the one for my niece. I think she ended up getting $1 bill from it. It's like playing the lottery but with the added benefit of something useful.

@Tina30219 I may buy these for my girls one on these days. I think it would be fun gift for them. Especially if I don't tell them and one day I get a message "Hey, my soap had $10 in it!" or however much they find.

Yep that's what I thought too. Unique and better than those money puzzle boxes me thinks.

@paigea Money puzzle boxes are just clear plastic boxes where you have to figure out how to open it. Kind of like a rubiks cube I think.

Money soap sounds interesting, but I wonder how it is sanitized. Money isn,t clean at all.

They put the money in a ziploc bag so it doesn't touch the soap.

No, I would not buy it and surely the reviews of those who found $ 10 are all fake reviews, I do not believe you can find more than $ 1 if you pay at least the double to get the soap. I know I do not trust people, but I lived enough to smell the scams.

I know there is a high risk with these, but I feel there is more of a benefit than a risk. Even if there is no money, you atleast have soap. I would not trust the seller again if there was no money, of course.

@LadyDuck True. There are cheaper listings on the site but I did not like their strong words in the description section. To me it seemed as if they were protesting too much and so I believed those people may not put money in the soap. This listing I found more trust in.

@ScribbledAdNauseum For $15 the seller can place $1 banknote in every bar and still make money.

What a fun gift idea. I read about the woman who received $10. I love that kind of soap anyway.

Right? I really like this idea as gifts because it's like the lottery but with a guarateed win. You know you'll win something and even if it's just one dollar you get the added benefit of staying clean.

Oh please do! This one was nice, but I ended up giving it to my sister. It wasn't just to detangle and condition, but it also helped with hair growth.

It would need to be a soap that is handmade, not something you can go to the local market to get.

You're saying the make soap out of.... money? Why? Doesn't that devalue the money?

No, they put money in a plastic bag and then pour their soap base onto it. As you was the money is revealed. The money is completely safe. The actual soap is expensive though because you're paying for the chance at larger bills.

Probably lower amounts. Highly doubtful there are any $100 bill in it even if they say there are.

Oh yeah, definitely a gimmick but a better guarantee than the lottery.

I might buy it just to try to get the $100 lol :) Not sure about the soap itself.
