Do any bricks and mortar shops sell Gaggia descaler?

    I live in dublin and cannot order off most of the places on the web as I have a stupid american express credit card which is not accepted in most irish/uk websites. I suppose I can always order from the states, but just wondering if any of the shops sell this? I asked in House of Frazer where I bought the gaggia classic, but no joy.

    Thanks!

    The electrical shop in Harolds Cross stocks it - they're actually the service agents for Gaggia domestic machines. If coming from town it's through the main crossroads and on the left.

    I was there recently and the guy who works there told be they normally do but were finding it difficult to get the domestic sachets of gaggia descaler lately and were out of stock.

    He told me brown thomas was the only other place he knew of that stocked it.
    I subsequently bought mine there.

    I was tempted to use regular citric acid to descale but a couple of internet posts warned that gaggia recommend tartaric acid rather than citric acid for their domestic machine. Their own descaler is tartaric acid.
