I saw these for sale at Sam's Club a few days ago for $78.88. They attach to your downspout on your gutters, and there is a spigot included so you can attach your garden hose at the bottom of the barrel. It holds 65 gallons of water that you could use to water your garden every day, and in an emergency you could use it to flush toilets.
The top is all enclosed to keep children and animals safe. And it has mesh so that mosquitos don't breed in the water. You can add some dirt on top and plant some flowers there.
This seems like a reasonable price for a rain barrel, I have seen them at similar prices elsewhere, and this one looks prettier.
Bought two!! One for the cabin and one for home! Plan to install this weekend.
