We use Baquacil here too. I think the initial purchase is expensive like you were saying Jenn....here it's $29.99 for the sanitizer and $9.99 for the shock.
But when we were using the chlorine tabs, the tabs themselves weren't that expensive but then you had the shock, ph+, ph-, alkaline ?, etc. So I kind of think it evens out a bit.
Forgot to mention, we have a heater on our pool and with the chlorine we always had algae blooms...not with the Baquacil.
Not to mention, I cannot stand the smell of chlorine. I hate the way it dries my hair out, not to mention the dogs, bleaches all our suits and our eyes looked like tomatoes!
