Empty bleach jugs, creative uses???

[Steve H]

Since I am SLAMimg the pool, I have obviously amassed a pile of empty bleach jugs, have any of you folks come up with any creative uses with these, other than filling up the trash can for the garbage man?

How about this??

Or this (there are some on this one I really like):

At the very least find a recycle place for them if possible.

Steve are there any pool stores there that has bulk liquid chlorine? If so it could be even cheaper AND no jugs to deal with. You will need to put down a deposit on their yellow jugs but you will get it back if/when you return them.

I used the bottom few inches of some for holding paint this summer. Sadly, I don't have a constant need for more of them so they just get recycled.

But something like this isn't all that bad an idea:
