Does anyone know a shop that sells sachets of silica gel, or a cheap thing
to buy that has a sachet in? (Argos 16-day-money-back-free-rental-scheme
comes to mind).

I only want one sachet, and know there must be some lurking around the
house, but cannot find one.

You could try asking in a camera shop.

Found some thanks. Lurking in my box of router bits. Just using it to dry
out an indicator bulb lens unit I have re-sealed, then putting it back.

I've got a number of sachets saved from various things (there would be
a lot less clutter if I didn't save things that might be useful
someday) so if you need any more just email me.

For future ref, you can also use lime. Its slower working but at 25kg
for £6 you cant complain!

I'm surprised they dont charge more. Same game as ready mixed mortar:
a kilo or 2 for what, £3,4? Nearly as cheap to buy 25kg of the stuff.
