But don't overlook bulk 12% chlorine from pool stores (or water treatment stores). I get 5.5 gallons of 12% for $9.00. There are a couple of pool stores and water treatments stores near me that sell chlorine (I'm finding out), but this place has the freshest chlorine with the highest turn over.

happy swimmin'!
