    I stack my 2-liter bottles of water in these:



    I'm a homebrewer as well... so I completely sanitize my 2-liter bottles before I fill them with water with sanitizing solution... I keep 8 2-liters in each car in these and it prevents them from rolling around the trunk. Also makes Stacking the water on a pallet easy.

    Good idea on using the shells as water storage! I have a couple I'm going to fill up when I get home.

    I was stumped on how to get them to stop rolling around in my car because I figure they are perfect for water storage in the car (also in a pinch the water can be sanitized in the sun for several hours). I then found a place that sells em and they are less than 2 dollars each on this guy's ebay store.

    I think that seller has another store website that I bought these from the shipping was 10.90 or something.Plus I think the 27 listed proce is expedited shipping, the last 4 that I bought he sent it Parcel Post for me.

    If you buy it from here: http://www00.mailcar.net/catalog/ind...nufacturers_id=

    you have more shipping options.

    Is any one storing the large 5 gallon water jugs (deep rock)? Also how long will they last. I have started collecting them and filling them.
