Does anyone know of a reasonably priced source for water containers that hold 20-30 gallons? In surfing around on various water container sites, $65-80 seems to be the going rate per container. Maybe that's simply what these things cost but it seems a tad steep....

May I recommend your local soft drink bottler? I have found food-grade plastic drums there, both 60-gallon and 30-gallon, for about five bucks each.
Just rinse the Hawaiian Punch concentrate out, and you are good to go.

We purchased a couple last year from our local bottler. If I remember right they were $10 each which was a really fair price considering the excellent condition that they were in. They look like they are the larger 60 gallon size.May I recommend your local soft drink bottler? I have found food-grade plastic drums there, both 60-gallon and 30-gallon, for about five bucks each.

My wife rinsed one out and filled it with tap water and a little bleach for storage based on a formula she found online. We have not tried the water but I am getting ready to open it and rinse it out again just to keep it fresh.
