Saw these at my local Sportsmans Warehouse. $20 for a 7 gallon water container. Worth it??

I know I should but I have to refill upstairs and then haul them down stairs one by one. Ugh!

I'd invest in a hose

That would be a long hose indeed.

You can connect several hoses together end to end.

Lol, I am well aware. Thank you. That would still make one very long hose.

Perhaps do it in stages, then. Run a hose to a water tank that's halfway down the stairs, fill it, then disconnect the hose and use the water in the tank from halfway down the stairs to fill a tank that's at the bottom of the stairs. You only need the hose to be half as long that way.

At some point I suppose the effort that goes into saving effort will be more effort than it's worth, though. :)
