If you look threw your local craigslist you should be able to find some in your area around 40 bucks. Quoting: Liquid_Pestilence [link to www.bayteccontainers.com] I used to go to the local dairy. They got their OJ concentrate in 55 gal steel drums in a vinyl bag so the steel was clean. They charged $10 for them with lids and band. Great for keeping rodents out of grain etc. Government is a body largely ungoverned. |

Quoting: Dr. Acula but i love this one! its catchy, its informative about the thread and it rolls off the tongue just right lol Thanks. I dont think many got the sarcasm in the old one. This is more direct and in your face, i hope it works better... I think we are both just trying to wake some people up to some simple non expensive ways to survive if anything happens to this fragile complex machine we all live in.
