Water

I've bought bottled water since forever they began selling it.

I was out and filled a gallon container and let it sit out to let the
chlorine dissipate out and it didn't taste half bad.

Do you drink straight out of the tap, filter or buy bottled water?

I need to buy another pool test kit to test the resting gallon jug of water
side-by-side with the bottled water and see which fares better.

Got a touch of "the runs" but that could've been the treat
pepperoni/sausage pizza and a 10 day past prime chugging of fat free milk.

From the tap ....just like many of the bottled water companies get
theirs. I am also not adding to their coffers, the empty jugs to the
landfills, not using up unnecessary energy in shipping it, nor having to
expend my own energy to lug it home

In St. Louis, it's dumb to buy bottled water. The tap water tastes
great here. When we lived in Tampa Bay, we had to buy filtered water
because the tap water tasted horrible. It cost 25 cents to refill a
gallon jug at one of the machines outside every grocery store (that
was back in 1991).

I refill my 5 gal container for my water cooler about half full from
the bathtub spigot.

We have a 600' deep well, however some friends that live in town swear
by the "Brita" filters. They have a pitcher w/filter and a filter on
the faucet in their wet bar.

They say the Brita water tastes as good, if not better, than bottled water.

Personally, I still prefer my well water.

OOTT! (out of the tap)

I've finally been blessed with what might be one of the finest natural tap
waters in the US. CO water at 7000ft. So soft, make yo baby hurt itz momma!

Out of the tap. Memphis (area) water is excellent. I do have one of those
Brita pitchers but I don't always remember to fill it up.

From the tap. Most bottled water (in the USA) is labeled "MWS"
(municipal water supply) or "PWS" (public water supply) or something
like that. I do sometimes, but not often, buy a 'case' of liter water
bottles just because I've lost the bottles over time. I'll refill those
bottles with tap water over and over again so I have portable (and
potable g) water handy when I run errands and such (bike ride, too).

We're fortunate to have a tested well that provides fabulous water -
cold and clean. Bottled water is just something we keep on hand for
emergencies. I can completely understand using bottled if your local
water is nasty, but could never understand the droves of people in our
previous home (a CA suburb) who inisted on buying bottled even though
their local tap water was indistinguishable from the stuff they were
buying by the case.

Geez, at 600' deep you could heat your home if you had a sealed closed loop
system unless you live in a desert.

Have a mountain top well in the yard at the farm next to the house that we
have tested annually and tastes great!!! There are roadside "drip" pipes
from other mountain springs that folks drive to and fill up from.

Right out of the tap, but I do run it through a Brita. I don't know why.
Just because.

Felice

Ours is definitely out of the tap. We were judged by some survey 2nd in
the nation behind NYC tap water in the '80's; and, it's just as good
today.

It comes from springs in the NC mountains, and our reservoir is so
pristine that it is a thing of beauty. My husband and I went up to it
on a weekend jaunt in his jeep. It was completely chainlinked fenced,
but you could see all the way to the bottom of the lake wherever you
looked. No boats allowed - or fishing - or admittance. They do have a
yearly chlorine treatment, but I think that's for the pipes.

Libby

In Adelaide, SA, Australia, the tap water is so salty you can taste it in the
shower. I did notice a side effect of all the women having such small breasts
as a result. Can't vouch for the men as that's not my interest.

Quite unfortunate and disgusting at the same time.

Straight out of the tap. If I want filtered water I use a filter jug.

I won't go without, if there's nothing but tap water available, but I
filter. I'll buy bottled when I'm out and about. I also keep bottled
water in my trunk. I used to have home delivery of the what are
those...eight gallon bottles? Fives?
