Today i was at the dollar tree getting a few little things for my first aid kit when i ran across something pretty durn cool.... I have a a 500ml platy that i use for camp water, cooking and for an extra push of water on the long stretches i love it its handy lightweight and works great..... WELL to the point! Today while at the dollar tree i found that they carry collapsable soft 520ml bottles very similar to what platypus makes but they have several colors and a pull top ( like sport drink bottles ). Its a buck so i went what the hell and bought a few got home tested them out no bad taste they have a bit of an odd shape but still fit comfortably. It also comes with a little hook to attach to your pack belt or anything to that fashion. It weighs in at .8 oz with the latch and .6 without. It feel its a killer deal and plan on brining one with a cool color to put my fuel in. Thought i would share this with you as it save you about 13 bucks if you were looking to get one from platy.
