Material to stop a plastic bottle from leaking

I like to carry large plastic bottles with wide lids in the car in case of "emergencies" especially for long rides with the kids. I have purchased several different bottles for this purpose and they all leak badly! I was wondering if there is any material that I can cut and force into the lid that will act as a gasket when once the lid is screwed on. 

I saw a video on youtube where someone used the bottom of a Styrofoam cup but these lids are larger diameter and are too big.

 

Any ideas appreciated. Thanks!

I truly think this is over-thinking it....

just buy a case of water and throw a few of the bottles in the car. Then, replace them every couple of months if you want and drink the bottles that you removed from the car. A case of water at costco is about $4

 

 

You are just a dirty, smelly fisherman. If a hot girl is making eye contact with you, she is probably a hooker.
