The other day when i was looking around on the internet about one of my previous posts based on water, i discovered a nice site talking about how to store water after a rain.
It was really interesting to read since there is a general problem in the world about water. Well now, someone can find it and store it by him/herself. There are big companies creating special containers and barrels out of plastic in order to store water. Well containers for harvesting water also exist. Im not aware of prices of such containers but whatever the price is even if it is expensive think about it before you say no to it.
For someone who has a garden and the monthly bill of water is quite high this could be a solution. In a long term a lot of money can be saved by using this water for your garden. The rain water might not be very suitable although for using in the house. The levels of toxicity for example might be too high in some areas and wont be healthy for the family. But, hey, its water and its not going to be a waste to be able to store it and keep it for an emergency.

I love this idea PB's parents have a big one like this at their house and use it to water the garden. It makes so much sense I can't believe that everyone doesn't have one. I really like the one in your picture though, his parents is plastic and looks ugly but they keep it behind the garage and you don't even know it's there.
