Just go buy some anti-freeze/coolant and you're good to go. Not really a big deal.

You can get it ANYWHERE. Even some supermarkets and corner stores carry it.

I noticed they sell premixed stuff now, I woud definitely go with the premix stuff then you don't have to buy distilled water too. If you put hose water in there you just sped up the eventual corrosion process.
