Go to a restaurant /bar and ask them for their empties.

Lol, both my Midwest plastics are full, so I can't check them. I don't remember too much of an indentation, but I was thinking more along the lines of the punt on a champagne bottle. Edit: I checked em. They do have a decent punt, like that of an apple juice plastic round gallon jug. I've not...
