3. Anyone have any creative uses for bleach bottles? I have a TON of empties sitting in my garage and nothing to do with them, besides recycle.

If you ever need to add granular CYA, they make a good portable yet sturdy implement from which to tie the sock in front of a return. Just fill the empty jug with water, cap it, place it near a return, and tie the sock to the handle.

BTW, Welcome to TFP and great job clearing the pool.
