I've read that it's supposed to be with canning supplies, and I've tried several stores. Still haven't tried Walmart yet, I'll do that this weekend. Our Walmart isn't one with a grocery dept. Do the regular Walmart's carry this?

I'm having the same problem. I went to Walmart and they don't carry it. They suggested a Super Walmart. I haven't checked their website yet though.
I found some pickling mixes with the canning goods, but not just regular lime.

should be with the canning supplies in any grocery store.... just make sure that it is 100 percent calcium hydroxide, and your set!
good luck

So the Ball's pickling mix at meijers may be ok as long as it is 100% calcium hydroxide?
I don't think it was, there were two different mixes, one for making bread and butter pickles and one for sweet pickles.
