Ok does the water softener salt say natural or non ionized? I poked at it at Wal-Mart the other day but I did not see it anywhere on the bag

I use non iodized pickling salt from Walmart. It's cheap and easy to find. I think 2lbs is like $1 at Walmart

The Clorox brand pool salt at Walmart is really fine and clean.
