Sponge worthy

Sea sponges, like the ones sold in this shop in Mykonos, Greece, are renowned for their antibacterial properties, and very popular with those in search of the ultimate bath. Sponges are animals, not plants, and are far superior to their synthetic counterparts. Natural sponges may cost more, but they'll last longer, won't absorb odors and are incredibly soft. Since you're spending more on your sponge, save on your shower gel with Whole Foods' grapefruit-scented bath gel for $1.99. Nothing smells better, and nothing costs less. So suds up!
