Bicarbonate is convenient to use and inexpensive. But, it is not always easy to get them.
Readers of comment-economiser.fr., you are used to finding it in the various tips.
Whether for home, health, beauty, baking soda is a must.
Here is where you can find it and buy it easily:
- In your supermarkets and large areas (virtually all brands have them today, in the salt and spices department):Leclerc, Carrefour, Cora, Auchan, Leader Price, Intermarché, Aldi, Franprix or even Lidl.
- In organic stores:Naturalia, Biomonde, Biocoop, Les nouvelles Robinson, Bio c'est bon, Satoriz.
- In pharmacies.
- In drugstores.
- In your DIY stores (here too, practically all the brands are there):Brico-dépôt, Bricomarché, Bigmat, Gédimat. You can find it in large packaging more easily.
- If you don't know where to find your magic white powder, read our article here.
- On the Internet.
The convenience of the Internet is that you can shop anytime.
And above all, it's the product that comes to your home (or if you wish, for a slightly lower cost, you can pick it up at a pick-up point).
I always bought baking soda in a rectangular cardboard box.
I saw that it can also be packaged in cylindrical plastic boxes, like for salt.
Depending on the store, the prices necessarily differ a little:
- Your bicarbonate is a little more expensive in pharmacies, drugstores or organic stores (around €4.50 to €5 for 500 g).
- It is sold at a reasonable price in DIY stores (around €4.20 to €4.90 for 500 g).
- Where it is the cheapest is still in your supermarkets and on the Internet (in principle around €3.80 to €4 for 500 g as here).
Warning: for a use where you have to ingest the bicarbonate (such as to whiten the teeth for example), prefer food bicarbonate. But for household use or for the swimming pool, a technical bicarbonate is enough.
