Acidifying multipurpose compost

I can't get ericaceous compost locally at the minute and have some small plants desperately needing potted on. I have sulphur powder, sulphate of ammonia and some hydrangea blueing agent. How would i go about making a suitable medium with some multi purpose compost? I've been on amazon and they are taking the micky with prices during this lockdown. I'm not looking to get a delivery as I'm pretty skint, just want to do the best I can with what I've got. The plants only cost a couple quid so would be cheaper to replace them if they snuff it than spend a fortune on compost. Cheers

But there's no quick and easy answer.
Around here there are plenty of farm shops open and most of them have compost.
B&Q is now open too - they may have it, and hopefully garden centres will be open again in the next few weeks.
