Default Where can I get an old style non CARB 5-gal gasoline can?

Was going to say/suggest same thing. Fortunately, still have a sizable

Speaking of which, I've not tried it as the form factor isn't quite as
convenient but the current 5-gal plastic pails w/ the pour spout used
for motor/hydraulic/etc. oil would certainly hold gasoline as well.
Most of those the spouts pour reasonably well if not perfectly. Those
should be relatively easy to find one of -- if nothing else by 5-gal of
whatever motor oil one uses and transfer it to something else...
