Abstract: A system comprising a funnel stand and a receptacle such as a plastic bag operably attached to the stand for receiving liquids (e.g. oil) which then can be detached and discarded or stored if desired. The basic stand preferably includes a flat continuous bottom support connected by open sides to a substantially funnel-shaped top wall with a centrally disposed spout. A deformable receptacle (e.g. plastic bag) is removably attached at its open end to the spout, and is preferably supported by the bottom, especially as it is filled with liquid.
