    As to the cost of a grater: Goodwill or a Dollar Store in the US. Thrift shops by any other name around the world. Garage sales, lawn sales, house sales, estate sales. Have never spent more than a $1.00USD for a grater. And I am not a cheapskate, just like a good bargain now and then.

    You forgot the cost of gas! If you can't walk to the point of purchase.

    As for me, Williams isn't worth the time.

    First off, I hope when you say "toss the Williams" you mean toss it into the shower and use it as a bath soap. It works pretty good for that, and why throw anything away? (I'm cheap like that)

    Secondly, "Softened" water is not the same thing as "Soft" water. I know there will be some that argue, but many people who deal with water softeners will complain about soaps not lathering, and not rinsing clean.

    I will agree that buying bottled water just to use a cheaper soap seems counter productive. Just use a soap that works with your water. I may be cheap, but I'm also practical <----- Not filled with Williams

    The Arko just popped into my mind but beluga <<< (great guy) gave me a stick of Palmolive and that works great also.

    I was beginning to sound like a Rep. but now that somebody else mentioned it ,,, Mama Bear's is pretty much my daily go to. Never heard a complaint about it not working for anyone, anywhere. And while the others lather just as well you get the added benefit of smell. It will smell how you like it best :<0) 1 puck lasts me a year and I use it almost everyday. Warning...it's not that expensive and you will get hooked on it.
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.
