Hey there! Welcome to Times Infinity Refill Bar + Eco Shop in Downtown Ladysmith, BC! We're happy you're here!

We are an Eco Shop focused on sustainable lifestyle products, including earth-friendly & health-conscious personal care and cleaning products for home & beyond in a refill format and/or sustainable packaging, apparel & accessories, and zero-waste products for daily life wherever your journey takes you! The Refill Bar is a full-service refillery, meaning we weigh & fill for you! Many brands we carry are based right here on Vancouver Island or mainland BC! Our mission is to source as locally as possible, when possible. Is there something special you are looking for? Let us know!

Feel good knowing we are committing to donating a portion of our profits to various environmental and local causes that speak to us. First up is the Marmot Recovery Foundation. We currently have a "Save the Marmot" campaign, where proceeds from the sale of each "Save the Marmot" Hemp tee or hoodie will be donated to the Marmot Recovery Foundation. You can learn more about these little cuties here.

So who runs the show?

Technically...it's our toddler. For real life! As full-time parents and business owners, things can get chaotic! We appreciate your patience as we move along! Times Infinity Corp. was founded by Bryce & Natasha Mayne. We have spent AGES going back and forth on different ideas, dreaming up our own businesses off and on over the years. As the story goes, life kept happening, we kept obsessing over the "what if's", and it was always put on the back burner. Fast forward to being new parents in the early days of the Pandemic, and we got REALLY used to slowing down for once and appreciating the little things. When entertaining another business to call our own, we ultimately decided where we were was not where we wanted to build our new life and we put that one on the back burner with the rest. So in July 2022, we began our journey to starting over. Now here we are! Some might say we made sacrifices (I mean, some days we miss some things from our old life), but it is all a matter of perspective, and the pros far outweigh the cons. To us, you can't beat living on an Island surrounded by all nature has to offer!

Meet Bryce & Natasha! We are Millenials and both Aquarians, together we are parenting a Gen Alpha Leo who is teaching us SO much about life. He has been the inspiration behind taking the leap to living lives of fulfillment and giving us courage to make our dreams come true so he can make his own dreams come true! We love and adore him times infinity!

Hi! I am Natasha! I love going on adventures with my family! When I take my "me time", long walks on the beach or taking pictures of this picturesque place we now call home are my faves! I ADORED my time as a SAHM. I am eternally grateful to have been in the position to take that extra time to be with our son. We both could not imagine it have being any other way. As the one with the experience in retail, I am currently the one found here most days. I am grateful daddy is now getting that extra time during this stage that he otherwise would be missing out on. Some days, we don't have to miss each other and we all hang out at the shop together! Before going on Maternity/Parental leave in 2020, I spent 10 years in the beauty industry as both an Aesthetician & Educator. I have struggled with the side effects of conventional skin care and cleaning products and that industry gave me access to a lot of resources and an understanding of ingredients. Years of trial & error have led me to dedicating myself to more "earthly" things...one swap at a time. Just like the 6 pack abs I still don't have, it's a process! I love the outdoors and am always at peace in nature, so naturally doing what I can to protect and preserve our home planet and our beautiful surroundings make my heart sing. That's my jam!

Hey, I'm Bryce! I will almost NEVER be seen without a hat or toque. I like to hang out in the background utilizing my previous experiences in both Accounting and Carpentry! When you walk in and see the custom shelving and the refinished cabinets, etc. that was my handy work! I have spent the last 14 years in the construction industry doing a little bit of everything. Anything from painting and finishing to concrete work and framing and even landscape work. Before Carpentry I received my accounting diploma from NAIT. Ultimately I made the switch to carpentry as I wanted to now try something different. After our son was born, everything changed. We wanted to slow things down a bit and immerse ourselves in our family life and the beautiful nature that Vancouver Island as to offer. In 2023 we made the move to beautiful Ladysmith, BC. We have been told over and over by the locals that we couldn't have picked a better town to raise our son. It has been so welcoming and a breath of fresh air....literally!

What's in a name?

We chose the name Times Infinity as it reflects both our personal stories and brand vision. In short, Times Infinity is a name that captures both the nostalgia of our childhoods and aspirations for our own child's childhood. We hung CD's and records in the store to pay homage to the influence of music in our lives. They catch the light so beautifully, so it was the perfect way to repurpose the CDs we still held on to! Where Natasha listened to punk, Bryce listened to country, together they enjoy everything from dance music to screamo to Christmas music. It's hard to explain, but it's all in a vibe. That was the idea behind our theme, to create a vibe that was just US. Pieces of every era of each of our lives to now and giving new life to old things. That's what it's all about!

Our goal is to help folks find and fall in love with products that are good for themselves and the planet. We believe in reducing unnecessary waste and strive to find products that can be used and reused, infinitely...Even if something is meant to break down eventually, we are working hard to only stock products that break down and can be returned back to the Earth if it can not be reused, repurposed or recycled in some way. We are open to creating a community and conversations around reducing what goes to the landfills and finding creative ways to give new life to things that would otherwise be thrown away. We recognize we are not going to do everything perfect, or always make the right choices. But we can guarantee we will never stop learning and will always be open to suggestions! So if you're in the neighbourhood, come on in and look around! If you can't make it, that's what this little virtual place on the interwebs is for!

See you around!

Love,

Bryce, Natasha, and Reiden...TIMES INFINITY
