    Between 1 gallon jugs, and cases of water, i've got just over twenty gallons, for myself and my girlfriend. About 90% of the water is unopened drinking water, the other is refilled gallon jugs from the tap. I plan to continue stocking a couple gallons a week, until I run out of room.

    We had empty 2 liters completely covering the tops of our cupboards for a few months. I got fed up with them one day and cleaned them all and filled with water to stick under the house. Glad I did it, because it doubled our water.

    I have always used barrels for storage. Currently have 3 55 gallon blue plastic drums in the garage full. Nowhere near enough for a year but enough to last until another ource is found.

    Yeah and if you want to get your blood warm look up how many states have made water filtration illegal. Then stop posting about potentially illegal activities.

    And they do look for such things. I got a letter once and all I had was a barrel near the downspout.

    How can you ban water filters? That just blows my mind, especially with all the crap in municipal tap water.

    First I've heard of such a thing. I heard that some places have banned bottled water and a few places have tried to ban salt based water softener systems, but I can't find any information on any states which have banned water filters. Have you got a link or a source?

    Don't forget, you need to 'rotate' your water, and you might have to put chlorine tabs in it, every 6 months or so, not sure of the exact time. It won't store for one year in a plastic bottle 'safe', I know that.
