I think the problem was the original poster was in a location where film
developers were no longer available and it was impractical to mail order
them.

Caffeine and vitamin C developers have the advantge of being made from
easily available household items, no one is going to become suspicious
if you buy a kilo of either.

There also was a flurry of activity at one time using the active ingredient
in Tylenol as a developer, but in many places it is very expensive, even
as a generic medication.
