$10 and 1 mile from home???
I wouldnt even bother screwing around with a tote, or a macerator pump, or a septic clean out.
How many times a year would you need to use it where you come back from a no facilities trip?
BTW I will admit, I bought a tote because I was being a tightwad too. Its a crappy job, pun intended. The fewer times I have to deal with human waste, the better. I used the tote like 3 times and now it sits in a shed up north. I'll probably never use it again. Guess I sure saved $$$, huh?
