“How long will the water last in those plastic jugs you get at the grocery store?”
They can start leaking after 6 months.
Many people transfer water into washed-out cola bottles, which last far longer than in the jugs. You have to add a small amount of pure bleach to disinfect, but I can’t remember how much. Google around for instructions.
6-8 drops Clorox per gallon. You should smell it. Let sit 24 hours. Rinse cap with it at first but wait 1 day to put it back on. Stay safe, diarrhea degrades your aim.

Thanks.
