Real Time Help. Silly question: buying Castile soap in Burgos?

This is really silly, but I left my Dr Bronners soap in Grañon. It's my bathing and laundry soap. What can I replace it with? Is there anything similar sold in Spain? I'm in Burgos currently.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Lagarto bar soap works well for both, .70 cents euro for a bar, sold everywhere.

I´m sorry but >I don´t know that brand of soap. But as the other poster I also use Lagarto Soap. It´s cheap and I use it for both washing myself and washing my clothes.
I don´t know if it´s what your looking for but it´s what I carry.

Buen Camino!

Thanks! But do they make a liquid soap? I often use the washing machine and I'm not sure how a bar of soap will work. Thanks again.
Btw, Dr Bronners is good stuff. All natural and biodegradable. Check it out.

Hi Brian. There is a sports supply shop called BASE at the corner of Calle de Madrid and Calle de San Pablo in Burgos (there are several other BASE stores in the city if this one is not close to you. You should be able to google). Perhaps they may sell something you could use such as a liquid camp soap.

You´ll find liquid soap for washing & shower at any decent sports shop in Burgos.

Buen Camino!
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
