Do you usually drink bottled water? Why or Why not?

Answer 1

No.

I don't drink water, bottled or tap.

Anyone who buys bottled water at those inflated prices is a fool!

Answer 2

I went to Starbucks and bought one of there bottles for water. I take this wherever I go because I was wasting so much money on bottled watered. When I cleaned my van I had about 30 bottles of half drunk water in the car from me and my kids getting a bottle here and there and then not finishing it. This way where ever I am at, I just fill it with ice and water and I am on the go. Hey if I am already stopping at the gas station to get bottled water, why not visit the soda fountain and just fill what I have with ice and water for 1/8th the price. In a months time, I would put the difference of a bottle of water vs to refill my water bottle (some places were free) I save over $100. Think of how much I save our recycling plants as well......

Answer 3

a bit of both. I always drink water it's like the only thing I drink. If I go out bottled water or an empty bottle refilled with tap water and at home tap water but when I go somewhere else I usually don't like tap water there. Not really bothered but bottled water usually tastes better except Volvic I don't like that. What about you?

Answer 4

I almost never drink bottled water, first because most city water around here is purer than you get in bottles, and second, the plastic bottle is such a waste for a few ounces of water you get almost free. If I was dying of thirst and bottled was all that was available, I wouldn't quibble, but I have been known to clean out a bottle and refill it over and over for weeks.

Answer 5

I rarely drink bottled water. I have been drinking our tap water since I was a child and like the taste just fine. My city (San Jose, CA) has won numerous awards for the cleanest, best tasting water in the nation. Whenever I travel out of town, I can often note the difference in taste. Still, I have never tasted what I would consider "bad" tap water.

My favorite beverege in the whole world is ice cold water. Here's the thing. When liquids are drunk very, very cold, the mouth can differentiate much less taste. Cheap beer does not taste that much different than expensive beer. One iced tea tastes much the same as another brand. Other things do go on, such as residual liquid remaining in the mouth after swallowing, temprature of the bottle, glass, or can going up, etc. THESE things greatly affect a person's perceptions of a drink.

But iced cold, the way I prefer my water, and I can enjoy this refreshing drink virtually anywhere in the country.

For me, bottled water is a convenience, such as fast food, or grubby clothes to wear around the house. I do it on occasion.

Answer 6

Yes I do .Once I started drinking bottled water I can taste the difference in tap water now also,I can get a glass of water and know if its tap or not.

Answer 7

I love to drink water and until recently drank it from our own well supply. Did not know how lucky I was until I moved. The water is now horrible - full of chlorine and I don't know what. Bought a fridge with a water filter in it, so have chilled water permanently on tap - great!!
Will drink bottled water if out as don't want to be drinking coke or similar all the time (unnecessary calories!!)
Would definitely recommend a fridge with water chiller if anyone is thinking of replacing their fridge in near future!

Answer 8

I buy a bottle of water, but then top it up from the tap, the bottle is useful don't care about the taste it goes down so fast

Answer 9

I drink bottled water but have never tried tap water

Answer 10

Only if I'm out and about and thirsty. I can't see the point, tap water has more minerals etc, it's fresher and not to mention no plastic means no waste.

Why pay your water rates and waste more money buying water that's been bottled 4-6 weeks at least eeww

Answer 11

I drink filtered water at home and when i am out i drink bottled water ...

I would rather drink bottled water than water straight out of a tap
