Hi, can anybody suggest a cheaper alternative to the rather expensive
ones on the market please?

I have used redundant fruit juice barrels see picture towards the end of
http://www.myalbum.com/Album=MUKLG34Q picture SG101021 these were obtained
quite some time ago from a local nurseries. Any good nursery will try to get
them for you.

Our neighbour has a huge plastic tank which was taken from a building which
was having a new direct water system fitted and didn't need a tank in the
roof. Try your local plumbers/central heating engineers.

Check if your local water company subsidises them, mine does, also the
local council might.

How do either of those answer the question about treatments? Mind you
I don't know what a water butt treatment is either or the reasons for
wanting to use one.

I was wondering the same thing. I have several water butts but there is
no "treatment" of the butts or water in them, so the question is lost on me.
