Where to buy catering-size vinegar?

boomerang

I want to get a good bit of vinegar to use as weedkiller. You can get 5 litre "jerry cans" of vinegar in the catering trade but I don't have an account with a cash and carry! Is there anywhere else in Limerick I can buy vinegar in larger containers than they sell in the supermarket? Thanks!

Do you know somebody who has a Musgrave / Other C&C account?

Ask your local shopkeeper if you they would order one on their next order?

When you say a large amount how large are you talking. ?
The easiest option for you would be to ask in one of the chippers that make their own vinegar, if they'd sell you a 5 litre container of raw acetic acid.

The mix for chip shop vinegar is one pint per gallon of water
Its dangerous stuff so you should always wear P.P.E

Thanks for the tips!

Looking for 5 litre cans of it - need two or three maybe.

I got a five litre plastic container of white vinegar in the Chinese Food Store on upper Henry Street. It's open to the public and they have great prices for large quantities of food.
