Anyone know about water additives for storage?

If you go for clear 2 liters they can be used as SODIS treatment later on if you have to.

I am trying to think of the way I can store that is:

-Easy to store.
-Has the greatest chance of staying fresh for the longest time.
-Even if the water is not drinkable when I need it, I have the greatest range of ways I CAN purify it when I need to use it. (MSR pump water filter/Iodine Tincture or tabs/Bleach/or even SODIS.)

I think the 2-liter solution bears the greatest opportunity to utilize the stored water in a semi-urban environment that regular ol' joes like me can start storing right now with minimal investment.

You've got it figured out.

The only thing you may add is some gatorade and 20 oz bottles, they're portable or handout sized.

I really like those gatorade packets that are in the Kool-Aide section they are really portable and are in all our Get-Home/Bug Out/EDC bags.

20-oz bottles I haven't thought about I completely agree. I'll adjust my recycling/reusing actions to add that into the mix.
