A couple of thoughts - the water in the toilet tank is drinkable.

Also, you can bleed the house lines for a few gallons.

Don’t forget your hot water heater(s).
Especially if you have more than one,
that’s over a hundred gallons.

For those of you with a second home, bleeding the lines keeps them from bursting during winter freezes. That's one less worry and one less $$$ repair.

You can even, according to my dog, drink the water in the toilet bowl. If really thirsty you can empty it out.

There are better sources. Depending on level of activity and weather you need at least 3 gallons a day per person.
