I have water jugs delivered to the house.



What brand of water? Also, if you don't mind me asking how much does it cost? I'm wondering if its cheaper than all the jugs I have to keep buying from the grocery store

Me too, with the breast cancer clusters out in my area you couldnt pay me to drink the water!

Oh and reason #2 and #3 - I have a humidifier that i used to fill with tap, it started giving off a funny smell and the inside of the tank and base would turn orange. Occasionally the water in my shower would be orange or brown. MMMMMM that should be tastyChat Icon

Bottled water from Costo. We usually go through a 35-pack of Poland Spring bottles a week, sometimes more.

I used bottled water.

I buy Gallons of bottled water for home, and buy individual bottles for when I'm leaving the house.

I order from Poland Spring (where I live, they deliver bottles of Ozarka and we have also used Sierra Springs).

You can go to Poland Spring's site and see the different packages.

I pay about 40/month for 5-5 gallon jugs.

We bought a water cooler from Lowes and get 3 gallon jugs to use for it at Bjs.

The jugs cost $2.99 each plus a $5 deposit that you get back when you return the empty jug.

Filtered and regular tap water. I use regular for cooking/coffee and filtered for drinking water. The fluoride is important for DD's teeth.

I'm amazed & appalled at the amount of people using bottled water from the store!

We buy water from the store.
I'm not sure about the water in other places but the water where I live definitely tastes different and I think is really gross!
