Carrying extra water...hurry before they are gone!

I purchased one of these from w mart last year and it has come in very handy filling the tank on the trailer for boondocking and camping without water hookups. Traveling today through Illinois I stopped at 3 stores to try and find a few more....no luck. Seems they are phasing them out. Amazon wants almost double the cost. W marts price is 9.95!!!A steal in my opinion. You can check Walmart on line for the stores that still have some.

Here is a link of what I am talking about.

I carry 6 of them when dry camping. I bought a 12 v pump from Harbor tool and two short water hose. I can empty a water can in about 2 min. My rig I can't just pour it in. Works great.

Also check out the"hurricane water source" - at AquaPodKit Emergency Water Storage 65 Gallon Includes Bladder And Pump With Instructions



I know it needs some support, i.e. plywood box or maybe the bed of your truck would suffice, but it does work and if not filled to capacity (this one is 65 gal, there is also a 100 gal version) it should work out ok for those really in need of H2O.
