Re: People who buy bottled water are fish at life.
[ QUOTE ]
i have a poland spring water cooler in my apartment because it's baller. hot and cold water in an instant, and i don't care what anybody says, that ish tastes way better than NYC tap water. besides, if the turrrists decide to poison the water supply i'm in good shape. the biggest problem i have with bottled water is how wasteful it is to use those plastic containers for it. but when you have a water cooler they get re-used by the company, so it's all good. if anyone is wondering we get like 20 gallons / month plus the cooler for 30 bucks. i think it's an awesome deal because i don't have to brew tea or coffee anymore, either. [/ QUOTE ] Agreed those dispensers are great. Fantastic to have hot or cold water instantly.

Only place was Lake Powell, in...Nevada I think. I was at Vegas, spent about a week there, and all I could get was crap water, so when I hit lake Powell, it was delicious.

It'd be interesting to know how much more a soft drinks company have to spend on filling the bottles, over whatever processes bottled water goes through. [/ QUOTE ] Considering that Dasani is just leftover water from making Coke, I assume it's pretty cheap.

i really, really love the feeling of guzzling down a refreshing drink of water. it is one of my favourite things in the whole wide world. especially when it doesn't taste like [censored], like say... tapwater?

Re: People who buy bottled water are fish at life.
Worst tap water I've ever had is in Nevada. I stopped ordering any beverage that wasn't pre-bottled there. Fountain soda even tastes like crap because of the water.
There was one restaurant in Laughlin I went to that would give you free bottled water because the tap water sucked so bad. They could have filtered the water, but I guess they wanted the appearance of clean water.
