0.5 L platy-like bottles with squirt top - $1.09 on 12/24/2011 13:59:11 MST Print View

Office Depot has 0.5 L collapsible bottles, with a "squirt" top, and carabiner for 1.09. Come in different colors and patterns, in bins near cash register

Yes the bottles are small for backpacking, weigh `0.5 oz ish, dont recall exactly, but the threads match a platypus , and the squirt top fits a platy exactly, and weighs 0.17 oz. It has a long collar that could be trimmed some too.

(If they only had 1L size, it would be awesome)

That could be a replacement for the long discontinued and much mourned Platy Little Nipper!

Santa brought me a couple of those. After a sufficienet test, I think I'll try Scotch in them.

Bought 3 the other day. The fitting works perfectly on a platy. I put water in the platy and put pressure on it, and no leaks. The pattern of the bladder reminds me of - the Chiquita lady, with the fruit on her head? Bright yellow and patterns of fruit!
