Get your hands on a BERKEY water purifier AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.
Get the largest unit you can afford and buy plenty of filter units for it.
There are plenty of places on the internet to purchase them.

No electricity required, no pumping... gravity fed only.

Turns water from a river, lake, stream, mud puddle into fresh drinking water.

Does not desalinate sea water, though.

In the coming hard times, having plenty of drinking water is a survuval
MUST. Plus, if you have plenty, you can trade and barter water for other
goods and services.

Handy tip: prefilter the source water (through cloth, coffee filters, etc) to
preserve your precious filter units.

NOBODY THINKS ABOUT WATER UNTIL THE EMERGENCY ARRIVES. Just ask
the Katrina survivors.
