You weren't robbed, you were gyped, there is a difference. Your "holy water" is most likely tap water. What did you expect?

Holy water is nothing else than a divine water, not that the water in itself is nobler than other water but that God's Word and commandment are added to it
Certainly not just water, but the word of God in and with the water does these things, along with the faith which trusts this word of God in the water. For without God's word the water is plain water and no Baptism. But with the word of God it is a Baptism, that is, a life-giving water, rich in grace, and a washing of the new birth in the Holy Spirit, as St. Paul says in Titus chapter three:
"He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by His grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. This is a trustworthy saying." [Titus 3:5-8]
Eph. 5:26 Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word.
