    Default Ascorbic acid

    I just found a cheap source of ascorbic acid, in case anyone is looking for some. Trader Joe's offfers a 1 lb container of Vitamin C powder (ascorbic acid) for $9.99. At my local pool store, ascorbic acid is $48 for 2 lbs. Hope this is helpful!

    Thanks! I wish I had read this a few days earlier so I could've saved a few dollars.

    Seems that I underestimated my needs when ordering online, and still had stain(s) after 2lbs was spread. A quick trip to Trader Joes saved the day, no more stains!

    After all these years it is great to see that the PoolForum is still around and as helpful as ever!
