    Same at the MalWart here in northeast PA. Didn't that used to be 174 Oz? They changed to Great Value a while back and I never picked up on the 182.

    Same price as our WalMart Northwest Louisiana. I had not picked up on the 182 oz change, either.

    I also use Aldi bleach which dropped in price from $1.29 to $1.09 at the start of the season. 6% concentration.

    if you have meijer in the area, the best buy i've found on bleach is their 10% in the pool section for $9.99 a case (4 gallons). similar in $/oz. to some of the 6% you can find, but more convenient.

    Our local Dollar Tree stores carry the 3 quart jugs of 6% for only $1.00. I went in one day and loaded 15 jugs into my cart. A couple of people looked at us a little funny, so I told my daughter, "if anyone asks what we are doing with all this bleach, we'll tell them we are cleaning up a crime scene!"

    I paid $1.60 per gallon at Marc's grocery (locally owned) in Westerville, Ohio today. That's about as cheap as I've found it since I don't shop at Walmart and there isn't an Aldi near me.

    I don't know if you have these stores near you... but "NAMCO" has 5 gallon jugs of 12% concentration for $17.00.

    You pay a refundable $6.00 deposit on the jug.

    A couple gallons of 12% and *WOW*... it clears up the pool in a jiffy !

    This is one thing I still buy from a pool store for two reasons. It is a bit more expensive (about $0.25/gal), but I need fewer jugs because it is 12%. That is much more convenient for me. The bottles also pour much nicer, and are naturally recycled. Plus they sell muriatic acid that is a lot stronger than home depot (the home depot acid dropped in strength about 2 years ago, but not in price), so I pick it all up at one time.

    The pool store also claims their chlorine is "fresher" than bleach or home depot chlorine. I'm skeptical on this, any thoughts?
