We used to have one of those big water thingies. It ended up being easier to just get the 24 packs of bottles, though.

Hmmm, I always take time to choose the water I want if I plan to buy any. CVS or Stewarts brand water? Ewww. (those are chain drugstores, by the way, )

Evian is the best, but I'm happy with tap water 95% of the time. Good topic, though.

For all you bottled water drinkers, can you please tell me what the difference is? (I'm completely serious)

Simply put: certain water, like Dasani and Aquafina, taste bad. Other water, like Arrowhead, tastes good. Can't give you any more than that.

Well... I can't drink the tap water where I live. We have too much radium in our water and it makes me sick... I usually end up drinking Aquafina since our school has contracts with pepsi. I prefer Le Nature or Deja Bleu. Its cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeap and it tastes prety good.

Water really shouldn't have a taste; that being said Dasani and DejaBlue are TERRIBLE.

I used to dislike Aquafina, but have developed a tolerance for it, since it's really all that is readily availible at my work. I usually just buy a bottle, and refill it from the tap until the bottle gets dirty. Usually, i'll buy one or two a week. I like my Tap water; Minnesota is generally known worldwide for excellent tap water. I also like Enon-Springs water, which is the house brand of SuperAmerica (Speedway) Gas Stations.

There's nothing like relaxing in a lawn chair on a hot day with the Garden Hose at hand.

FOLKS!!!
Dasani is tap water from atlanta, georgia with salt added to it. Omg, i think it is the nastiest stuff around.

I prefer our filtered water from the fridge personally, although i will drink whatever they've got at dance when i'm dying of thirst. Usually Ice Mountain, or something like that. That is stuff that I like.

Bingo!

If you taste something in your water, it's not the water. Pure water has no taste.

I don't know about other countries, but in the US bottled water is not regulated any more than tap water (usually less), and if bottled and sold in the same state, not regulated at all.

Whatever brand of bottle we find empty on the ground. We fill it from our pond.
