I get the 2.5 gal jug from my pool store and pay WAY too much. What strength is that typically? I didn't even know that store bought bleach was an option. I learned something new today
Yep......Bleach run day. Nice shiny new bottles of Great Value bleach at Wally World on a display in the aisle. Thought great......don't have to walk quite as far! Strange.........Lord knows I've bought enough to notice the entire label change. Checked it out.....down to 6% AT SAME PRICE OF $2.94 PER Gallon here. Went to normal shelf and bought the last 15 gallons they had of the OLD 8.25% at same price. I guess now they're gonna start selling my beer in 10 ounce cans (trade war with the world on steel and aluminum ya' know)..........and RAISE the price!
Where in Houston
so the regular walmart bleach is 6% and cost $1.77 a jug.
The concentrated bleach is 6% and cost $2.96 a jug.
Has anyone tested the concentrated bleach to see if it is in fact 6%? Maybe it's a printing mistake?
Atwoods Ranch and Home is located in lower KS, OK, upper TX, & AR. They are still showing the same $2.99 price I have paid the last few years for 11%. They have a sale often. Then it's $2.50 a gallon IIRC. The date codes all usually indicate fairly recent stuff.
Menards is advertising 12.5% for $3.99 ($3.55 after their constant 11% savings sales) per gallon. I haven't used theirs so no knowledge on date codes.
That makes Atwoods $0.212 per ounce of chlorine (21.2 cents) at normal price. $0.177 per ounce of chlorine (17.7 cents) at their sale prices.
That makes Menards $0.249 per ounce of chlorine (24.9 cents) at normal price. $0.221 per ounce of chlorine (22.1 cents) at their sale prices.

We have some plain Walmart bleach for the laundry (not sure which specific version it is) which is 6% stuff. Right below the ingredients which say it's 6% is a note which says 5.7% available chlorine. I've never seen a note like that. This could mess with a person calculations possibly?
