I'm looking to make myself some bath bombs. Anyone know where in the city I can buy citric acid?

Citric acid

Bulk barn sells tiny jars for about 4.50 ( not a good deal for bathbombs) and I have had better luck at 2 Farm Kids but for making a lot of bathbombs I ordered online from SaffireBlue and got a 3kg bag for $11 something quite some time ago. Shipping is a fair amount but I had other things go to order.

I would love to find a local source that sells large amounts cheaply!!

Not sure in Brandon

I get mine at Harris pharmacy in Neepawa - they sell it in ziploc bags for $3.50/lb at the till: you just have to ask for it. So, maybe a pharmacy in Brandon? Worth a try.

Small town pharmacies are where it's at. They sell it in 5 lb bags ($15-20) as a dishwashing rinse agent for all us poor saps with untreated well water.
