I use glass 1.5 liter wine jugs that I bought at my local supermarket.
They cost about $5 each which doesn't say much for the wine (I think I
ever poured some of it down the sink).  They work well (going on 2 or 3
years here).  They are clear glass so just store them in a box or closet
when not in use.
