Water Storage: FREE Buckets!

Post by Readymom »

Wal-Mart bakery and they have 3 gallon buckets that they discard after they are done and are for sale for $1.00 . soak them in water and baking soda. The lids are the hardest to rid of odors. (Source unknown)

Also try your local grocery store bakery departments .... they will often give you the buckets for free. And don't forget your local Sam's club, BJ's, Costco ... they also will most often give them to you for free. Another source is Dunkin Donuts. DD usually will ask for $1 for the buckets.

These buckets can then be used for water storage OR for the storage of your dried goods. Bucket lids are a devil to open once they are sealed shut. You can find bucket lid openers on line for a hefty price, (I have found) but then I looked in Lowes and found them in the Painting isle for $1!! -k
