Need Water Softener Powder/Boraxo?

Q. I would love to know where in West Plains, MO or near here I can find Boraxo powder, I have checked all over and I'm stumped.

A. Hi, Michelle. Boraxo ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] is/was actually a trade name for a particular hand soap as I recall. The current prices strike me as 'boutique / concierge' rather than practical. But if you are looking for water softener powder / laundry aid powder, 20 Mule Team ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] powder or Earthborn borax ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] powder currently costs about 6 times less than Boraxo powdered hand soap :-)
