Ozark Trail brand 1L Lexan water bottles are on sale at Wal-Mart for $1 each. Wide mouth with lid-retainer loops.

My local store has also started carrying collapsible hiking poles for $9.97. Don't know how durable they are, but I may just have to try these.

I've scored lexan bottles at Target for $1. I've noticed they aren't as durable as Nalgene brand. They're good enough though.

They don't fit on my first need waterfilter, and splash guards don't fit either.

but if you don't care about that stuff...hey $1 is great.

I got two lexan bottles at work the other night for free. A Miller promotion. Got to peel Miller Lite labels off a bikini clad hottie to win them too. That was much better than the prize.

at work?! Where do you work?

The target bottles work with a splash guard, I never tried to screww my purifier on it though. Birch has the tiki guy type.

Are the threads the same as on the Nalgene bottles? Or more to the point, will an MSR MiniWorks mate to one of the WallyWorld bottles?

It only costs a dollar to find out.

Lexan kills. Kidding, it only deforms babies.

I had to pay $3 each for a couple of WalMart bottles. What a rip off!

The threads are the same - I can screw a Nalgene lid on the WalMart bottle.
