Don't do this ever, unless you want to drink microplastics and the nasty chemicals used to make them.

Your best bet is to just keep the freezer as stocked as possible. A full freezer is an efficient freezer, which in turn makes the fridge more efficient (given that the they share a single compressor/condenser setup).

Or just use sink water and then toss the bottles afterwards.

Okay but I can't drink a frozen turkey, Francis.

Nobody gives a shit about micro plastic when you can't get potable water otherwise.

You can drink anything if you have the will.

The elites don't want you to know this, but you don't have to freeze water to preserve it. It doesn't have an expiration date because it's water; stick it in the fridge or simply store it on the counter at room temperature.

I didn't think you understand

Understand what? The idea behind freezing water bottles to help your fridge stay cold during a power outage, or the contents of your comment?
