I have a tan one that was given to me years ago. Looking to get one or two more. Anyone know of a local source for good ones?
By local I mean western Washington. If anyone going to LCR in a week has a source for them that would also help. |

i know you mentioned local, but if you can't find them locally, I have bought mine from LCI in the past.

There is never such thing as too much water at the LCR events. That’s why I am looking for one quickly. |

That’s good to know. Not sure if I’ll be able to clean them before going to LCR. That was the goal was to bring more than the one I have. I can probably scrape up some of the blue water jugs in the mean time if needed.

IIRC, I saw some in/at The Foxhole in Lakewood a few weeks ago. REI has them, too: Water jugs ETA: Wow- big price difference between the LCI cans and the Scepter cans at REI, although shipping needs to be factored in. ETA 2: Amazon has them, for a low price, but Amazon might be the debbil. |

Ah yes, I remember filling up my canteens with that 100+ degree water from those at 29 Palms. Thank God for the desert water bags.

!!! ALET !!! ALET !!! ALET !!! (Prime Day Deal - 15% off)
This is for the 10 L/2.5 gal cans, which I prefer over the 5 gal cans... Scepter 2.5 Gallon True Military BPA Free Water Container $30.60 Similar price for OD green color 2.5 gal cans. These are about the lowest prices on CamelCamelCamel last I checked. No Prime Day deal seen for the 5 gal cans- OD green appear to be $45.99; sand color are $49.89. |

The temptation was strong to buy a few, then I realized I only really need water jugs for one week a year (camping), and I already have multiple water jug solutions for that. And I've got some 30 gallon blue water barrels, so I'm looking at 74 gallons of portable storage already.... So spent that money on ammo instead....
