WATER BOBS

[NorthernRaider]

I've had a good 7 or 8 enquiries this am from preppers wanting Water BoBs and wanting to know where they can get them. They are available off E bay from the US at about £22 plus about £12 postage from the US.

I dont like em , JL in Liberal KS had one, it was still new and in the bag and had been stored for about 3 years, when he got it out to demonstrate to me what it was and how it worked it cracked in three places where it had been folded leaking water everywhere.

Basically its a food grade bag thats bathtub shaped and you fill it with water in a crisis during an emergency. but they are delicate, they are immobile and if that one large container gets tained you have lost a huge percentage of your water reserve.

But if you fill multiple 5 gallon polythene or polypropalene water containers you can store loads of em in your bathtub if thats your desire, and they are much tougher, more rugged, portable and if one is tained the rest should be fine.

Isnt it amazing how some folks just react instinctively to what they see on TV and instead of thinking what do they actually need and what works best ? they just decide " I want one of those". I fear our community (or parts of it at least) is just loaded with daydreamers and instinctive shoppers.

Just double checked it was 5 enquiries and 2 were from the same couple !! sorry for the inaccuracy.
