I refuse to buy a bottle of water, for reasons already stated, environmental and economic. We used to do bottled water at work (the PIPES are nasty there, not the water) so I bought a Brita dispenser thing for an office Earth Day present. Much better. And while Long Beach water is fine, I think it smells really sulfur-y unless it's ice cold, so we have a Brita pitcher at home too. I usually use regular tap water to cook and stuff but filtered tap to drink on its own.

Bethlehem, PA tap water was the best, i miss it...

Filtered tap water....... Lots of it!! For both the kitties and me.
And for you two above that only drink water when you take pills.... WHAT???? Drinking water is probably the easiest, simplest and cheapest thing you can do for your health! Drink up people!

Both. I drink tap water at home, which is ran through the filter in the fridge and chilled. When I'm out and about I drink bottled. When I'm in different cities I only drink bottled b/c I'm snobby according to my husband and only like the taste of our city's water.

I drink both. I use tap water for coffee and sometimes just to drink.

The bottled water has fruit flavor in it. I needed an alternative to soda and the fruit water seemed like a good choice.

I never buy just plain water.

Never from the tap! We have well water and even though there is an entire room next door filled with a filtering system, it still smells eggy to me. When we lived in town I wouldn't drink the tap water as the city pumped from the river, which was downstream from a Superfund site!

We (cats included) only drink bottled water from the cooler.

Tap normally. Memphis has some of the best water in the country.


I have a purple waterbottle I usually refill and take with me everywhere. / If I'm out running though I take small water bottles with me, just depends! I try to save $ by using tap water though because our water is really good quality. Also, the flouride in the water is good for your teeth!

We have filtered water, but we also have bottled sometimes, but I always reuse them and recycle. DONT ever drink the tap water in Hanford Ca....it tastes like rotten eggs!!
