So you got a wheatbag? If you follow the heating instructions (now that you know what your microwave rating is) I would think they're probably not much different at the chemist...But, I certainly don't Know that! lol
Can't recall where I got mine

There are organisations that employ physically and mentally challenged people. They often make wheat bags because they're something repetitive and easy to supply materials for. They are often better quality because of their high attention to detail. They're often cheaper too.
The ones you find in op shops are often made by these organisations to support the disability sector.
