Bottled water

[Mr Aleks]

Do you buy it? What do you think of it compared to tap water? And if you do buy it, why?

[flashy]

yes i buy it, i buy it because i want it, and why do i want it? because i am probably thirsty at the time

[panther]

dont buy it!
tap water is good enough, just pop it in a jug and pop it in the fridge, simple, nice cold water

I installed my own carbon filter system which has its own tap -easy peasy.
I dont like the chlorine -can smell it when I run a bath, so leave it evaporate off for about 5 minutes -am thinking of dechlorinating bath water - seen something that can be added and is natural but cant remember where (on web) I saw it

Tap water has all kinds of things added to it. Bottled water doesn't, unless tampered with.

I drink both, but keep tap water to a bare minimum.

[Mr Aleks]

I had a look today at some in blackburn and saw this on a bottle of a well known brand

"taken from a municipal water supply"

Now municipal means tap basically.

We pay more for this water per litre than petrol.

municipal means shared btw

I don't like the taste of tap water. it's like drinking bleach:

[Mr Aleks]

And you could watch this too....

Water is naturally in cycle (nothing new under the sun)
So the only water that might not have been p**d will be that which has been frozen in the polar caps for eons

I buy it because I can't stand the smell of the water that comes out of the taps. It reeks of chlorine and makes me feel sick.
