Washing Soda

By Hklbrries

DEAR HELOISE: I read your column in The (Newark, N.J.) Star-Ledger. You spoke about washing soda. Where can I purchase it, and does it go under another name? Thank you. — Linda M. in New Jersey

Love to help, Linda! Washing soda (which is not baking soda) also is known as sodium carbonate, soda ash or soda crystals. It usually is found on the laundry-detergent aisle. If you do not see it on the shelf, call or ask your store, which might be able to order it for you. Also, check at hardware stores and national big-box stores. I checked with several retailers, and they do carry it here in San Antonio. Or you can always order it online. Hope this helps, and happy washing! — Heloise
