I'm getting sick of going to close the pool with a whole new batch of water bags and having 1/2 of them leak out of the box. I was getting them at Ocean State Joblot. This year I got them at Leslie's this year and the closures are nicer, but still half of them leaked. I'm about ready to just start paying the pool company to do it for me because the year I had them close my pool I didn't seem to have any problems with leaky bags.
Do quality water bags exist?

Lots of people are using water blocks now, but anything you fill and let freeze solid is going to do damage. Treat yourself and get a safety cover, you won’t regret the spend.

I have some of these that work pretty well (been using them several seasons now)
Just as effective, and much cheaper, is bleach bottles. I use these around most of the pool now. Some are several years old now and no leaks so far.

I don't need them to last year after year, I"m just sick of 1/2 the bags leaking when I go to fill them up.

Looks like i'll be saving up chlorine jugs for next year. I had a few set aside, but not nearly enough for this year.
