    Bottled Water Discussion

    Take the video with a grain, obviously.

    I personally use bottled water as well as have those big jugs of water that comes out of a little water filter at my house.

    Thoughts on it all?

    I use the filter on my fridge

    I've drank tap my entire life. I am one of those who think bottled water tastes terrible.

      Really depends on where you live at. Because for me, I lived some of everywhere and to me the following states have nasty tap water to me: Florida, Indiana, Alabama, New Jersey.

      So it is bottle water for me when I am in those states.

        I drink tap what with a filter on my fridge. Taste different then just straight out of the faucet.

        I also drink bottled water, I might single handily fill up a landfill every year.

          Me too. I think Aquafina tastes terrible. Awful aftertaste.

            Interesting video. I drink bottled water because growing up my family always had bottled water in the house. I never trusted tap water I guess which is silly I know but it's just a psychological thing and when I drink that distrust makes me think something is wrong with it. Growing up I hated the taste of tap water, now I can drink it but I still choose bottled over tap.

            A 24 pack of bottle water I usually buy is $3.50 I buy 2 per month so that totals $7 per month and $84 a year. I never buy water at a convenient store or a restaurant because their prices are ridiculous.

            I never knew how much oil went in to making the bottled water but I did know that a lot of companies just use filtered tap water basically.

              I use tap water with a filter.

              The bottled stuff is pretty much what that lady says overpriced water that is mostly just filtered stuff.

                OK I have to agree with this though. Water in FLORIDA tastes like straight up sewage. I mean even when I shower I still feel like I rolled around in waste. It's so disgusting I can't describe it. It even smells to me...I'm getting sick just thinking about it.

                I get the big gallon jugs when in Florida...

                  I only drink bottled water. My favorites are Evian and Aquarius Spring. Aquafina tases like crap and gives me headaches after I drink it. I will drink a Dasani in a pinch though.

                    What, you don't recycle!

                    Anyways, I drank bottled water when I was in college (Always recycled the bottles ) But otherwise I just drink out of the tap. There was actually a survey done by one of the local news stations a number of years ago where people actually said Pittsburgh tap water tastes better than the bottled stuff.

                      Nor Cal tap water is as legit as it comes. The reservoir brings in a great taste!

                      That being said, I can't say the same for So Cal tap water. It's a godsend having an Aquafina bottle by my side every night as a result.

                        Bottled water is the biggest scam ever. Get a filter for your homes rubes. It's the same thing as your precious bottles contain, far less waste, better for the environment, and cheaper. There's no postive argument for bottled water.

                          lol I thought it was just me. I can drink bottled water for the most part, but Aquafina's taste is sump nasty.

                              It taste better in some states. Even with the filter. I think thats a positive argument.
