Helen,

    Unfortunately I live in Colorado where pools are not common. So
    local home centers don't carry pool chemicals. I have purchased from
    a local pool service but found their inventory to be erratic. And
    forget the hot tub stores. They mark their chemicals up so high and
    carry only small amounts. Plus you have to deal with hot tub sales
    people. 

    The couple who own my local rock shop will be retiring soon so I
    will need to find a regular source. I guess I'll just have to bite
    the bullet and pay for shipping and hazardous chemical surcharge and
    buy it from my usual jewelry suppliers.
