which supermarket have you tried norman?
google hits aplenty, aussie ones suggest it's in the supermarket near
the laundry detergents.
washing soda = sodium carbonate.
pulled this off the web:
Can you tell me where I could buy washing soda? I have tried a number of
big supermarkets, and a big hardware chain, but with no success. Thanks.

You'll find washing soda in the cleaning aisle of your supermarket. It's
in a smallish clear plastic bag in either a crystal or powder form. The
brand name is Lectric Soda. It's generally around the pre-wash, ironing
aid area. Most supermarkets have it, it's just usually well hidden.
