Unless you are currently taking 5000 IU of vitamin D3 per day the odds are you probably are vitamin D deficient.

From what I understand, the vitamin D 'bucket' can store more than a day's worth, so you could also take 15000 IU every 3 days. Does anyone know if this wouldn't work?

At this point we don't know enough about vitamin D to answer that question. There are reports of people who found that taking Vitamin D in the morning is better for them than taking it in the evening. That suggest that timing matters.

Yes, we appear to have stockpiling adaptations for D3. "Stoss therapy" is built around this principle.
