Water butt pump

Yorky · 2008-02-25 22:09:48

I tried attaching a hosepipe to my water butt tap but gravity alone is insufficient for it to flow. Argos do a water butt pump for circa. €77 but this seems expensive - does anyone know of a cheaper alternative?

Aldi & Lidl occasionally sell them, I think I paid around €30 for mine. All appear to be around £30-40 on ebay.

I think the're all practically the same apart from the colour and manufacturers stickers.
