AND it comes from the tap...................
If I am going out and am likely to die of dehydration before the day is done:

For the price of a couple of 'bobble bottles' I can pay my months' metered water bill. The cost of manufacturing these far outweighs the cost of tap water - of which mine is filtered many times by the water company. Removing all the 'terrible additives' makes little or no difference, I have a pefectly good immune system which could be destroyed by a too-pure intake of food and water. All these gimmicks are hardly money saving!0

I don't really understand it either. Why not just drink tap water? Is it really just me who thinks bottled water tastes vaguely old and slightly of plastic?0

All just designer nonsense. One born every minute.0

You spend more than £4.00 per day on just 1 bottle of water? What water is that? You know that's about £1,500 per year. To me 1 bottle of water costs...well less than a penny. Also, how is it green? Or is that just the colour of the product?v_norman_v wrote: »Thought I would share this as i think its a great way to save money and is green.

I was put off bottled water when I bought a TDS meter. It clearly showed that bottled water contains a lot more impurities than tap water.
Buy a drink bottle from the 99p store and fill it with TAP water. Not only will you be drinking purer water you'll be saving money too!0 -

I recently saw this in my friends house! It is such a great investment! Not only do you end up saving a lot of money over time, but it you aren't wasting all of those plastic bottles every time you drink a water!0
