Have you considered a tank connected to the house gutters?

If you get good rain fall it could pay itself off over a short period of time.

Might not work if you get below freezing temps in winter.

Just a thought

Moyboy,

Yeah, we get below freezing temps. We get in the sub-zero (F) area a couple of times.

Last year, I had a nice galvanized 35 gallon garbage can that the water ran into. Worked great. It split a couple of weeks ago. :(

I can use tap water - it's real cheap and what I try to do is let it sit for a day or two to allow the chlorine to dissipate. Just need to get use to 20 gallons a week rather than the 4-5 I used last year.
