Where do you get Borax from?!


You should find it in the Laundry soap section of a supermarket.

It's
prime use (domestically) is for washing things like blankets. The
brand I use is Hovex and it's in a plastic container about the

sixe of
a smallish can of corn.


I did look there, and didn't see it.


Now was that a boy's look or a girl's look? And did you look high on
the shelves and low on the shelves? Slow movers like Borax would
probably be either high or low on the shelves.

You could try some of the more "ethnic" supermarkets like the one at
Karabar. If you have trouble getting it, let me know and I'll get
some at my local and send it to you.
