Don't know of any locally. I order the Mylar bags on-line.
Make sure you get good quality, 5 mil thick with either an FDA approved ziplock or do a heat seal.
If you use the Mylar bags, you can use the generic buckets made in Leominster, you don't need a food grade bucket as the food isn't going to touch the bucket. Just make sure the gasket is in good shape on the lid and use a mallet to get it on tight. Any hardware store will have the 5 gallon and probably the 1 gallon too. Wash it out with soapy water and make sure it is very dry before using and you will be fine.
