Those are both great ideas. Thank you!

It is $20 for a case of four 128oz bottles. Based on what I've read here it's probably not an exceptional deal, but it is the closest to me and they come 4 to a box which makes carrying them easier. I haven't yet priced it anywhere else nearby. I am a bit concerned about the shorter shelf life...

Hi all, I have a pool store down the street that sells FSTI brand 12.5% bleach. I'm trying to figure out the date code but there seem to be a lot of extra characters. Is this saying the 15th day of 2017? I believe the characters are 6c170151034.
