YOu can buy 1 gallon jugs of spring water with sturdy screw on lids at walmart for about a dollar each. $20-$30 gets you a lot of water storage. And you can stash them wherever you want, and they don't all have to be in the same place. Just dump them in the campers water fill hole as needed. Save the jugs, they can be reused.
If you are around Walmarts and populated areas I don't see why you would need to buy gallon jugs of water. My water concerns arise only when I am in the middle of nowhere.
Think of it kind of like your food. You stock up when in town, use it when you are out in the sticks. You can refill the jugs at lots of places.
This trick came to me when my truck broke down in the winter and I was stranded in a repair shop parking lot for 3 Days. My transmission failed on the way from Minnesota to Florida, and I had it towed to a garage. The camper had been winterized for the journey, so there was no water in it, and the shop was closed for the weekend. So I walked to a grocery store nearby and bought 20 jugs of water and poured them into the tank. It worked.
