The only place I can find it is in supermarkets in the baking aisle in tiny overpriced containers!
I have looked in Wilkinson's and other houseware stores (including independents) but have not been able to find it yet.
Any ideas?

PD, I'm looking for something a bit bigger than the small pots they sell in Tesco, so I can use it for household cleaning. Perhaps a couple of kilograms as opposed to a couple of hundred grams?

You can order it from Wilko's online: http://www.wilko.com/surface-cleaners/clear-and-natural-bicarbonate-soda-500g/invt/0264235?VBMST=bicarbonate. Also you can order it from Chemists too apparently. I just looked on Ebay as well and the price isn't too bad. Hope that helps!'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good'0

Try searching online for shops catering to soap makers - it is a principle ingredient in bath bombs and bath fizzers so is sold in large quantities. I can't give you a specific website as the last place I bought it from seems to have gone out of business sadly...Trust me - I'm NOT a doctor!0

I got a box of Arm & Hammer in Poundworld. It might be called baking soda on the box, as it's a brand I'm familiar with from North America. It's 454g, which is massive compared to the little vials they sell in supermarkets. If only I could find baking powder as cheap..Swagbucks Amazon gift vouchers 2014 125/250
