I ran out of jugs and then someone said to use gallon freezer bags. It was cleaner, less prep. faster. Then I read something that said you cut the bottom out of a plastic water bottle and insert it in the bag, then seal the bag around the neck of the bottle. however it seems like it's taking up all my dirt space. ( ha kind of like my house =)

I tried using the roll found in paper towels, but they tried to 'droop' when they got wet.

Any other handy, dandy suggestions?

ps. I didn't take a picture of my 'droopy' bags ... here's one that I am proud of
