Plastic Drums For Rain

Does anyone know someone that has empty plastic drums (55 gallon) that I could use for storing rainwater? (Plastic drum) rain catchers cost over 150 bucks online and I figure empty plastic drum + hole in top = cheaper alternative.

I thought you were going to bang on them and do a rain dance.

 

You're welcome! Someone else had posted it awihile back, so I just found the link for you. I've been trying to my DH to go.....but he's procrastinating. :x

 

hope this link works.
The city of Raleigh sells rainbarrels.
Great prices on rain barrels without the hassle of making them.

I heard on triangletrader.com at 5:15 yesterday that a man has plastic drums with lids for sale and they are only $10.00. He says they are perfect for catching rain water.........

 

All are great options, thanks.
