* Bulk CO<SUB>2</SUB> scrubber. I ordered two Each 3 pound bags for bag is $10 each 7.80 + $10 shipping. ** I ordered 'JorVet J-553 Soda Lime', produced by Jorgensen Laboratories. I got mine from shopmedvet.com, and they tend to change their URLs so you may have to search for 'soda lime' on their site. As of 6/22/11 the link http://www.shopmedvet.com/product/3057soda-lime-3-lb-bag/jorgensen-products-anesthesia-products worked.  Total cost was $306 (excluding the unused scrubbers).
