I only drink bottled or purified water. I live in an area that had a major contamination outbreak 30+ years ago due to a faulty and dirty water filtration system, so now our water has high levels of chlorine - 5 years ago I lived about a half mile from a neighborhood plant, and my eyes would burn in the shower because the chlorine was so strong. So I have no choice but to pay an extra $10-15 a month for cleaner and safer drinking water.

Reverse osmosis setups aren't that expensive, these days. As hard as your water is, it's still probably better than tap. Hell, filtered well-water? Even a zero-water filter, tbqh... they come with a tester; at worse, you'd just have to replace it more often. Still better than not-knowing what's in the bottled water. Plus, all the microplastics 'n shit are probably making your penis gay, as we speak.

Really. I was looking and an under-sink one is ~$200. Looks like you just have to hook up the supply line, drain, and drill a hole for the spigot above for filtered water. No electricity.

Cheaper than buying water every week. It took me about 2 hours. Not difficult at all.

Did you even read their comment before regurgitating that inane bullshit or do you just write about what you wish the comment was?

Either way, you sound like a fucking moron.

Are you always this angry, you fucking retard? Low IQ people are always quick to anger, so I'll forgive you, but next time I'll have to take you down to the principal's office.

The tax stamp will really make the bottled route expensive.

I only drink Mars water. Untouched by life for millions of years. It's the purest water you can drink. Brought in through Antarctica where the lizard people have their launch pad. It's 20,000% more expensive than regular bottled water.

Two reasons people buy it: 1) Like me, for the bottle. You can refill them so you don't need many. 2) Their tap water sucks. I had this problem in Arizona until I got a whole house water softener and RO system. A lot of people without upfront cash there rely on various kinds of bottled water (though not necessarily these small ones which are overpriced)

Also, sometimes you are closer to a store than a tap.

You don't get the point. Bottled water in EU is real mineral water and is very cheap.

Oh, nice. I drink a lot of Pellegrino sparkling at restaurants because I don't drink alcohol.

The well water we had back on the farm was so full of minerals that visitors would spit it out.

You don't get the point. In the US, OSHA requires you to provide disposable cups and a trash receptacle for those cups at every worksite with a water dispenser if that's how you choose to keep your workers hydrated. A cooler with bottled water is 1000 times more cost effective.

Who gives a shit about gay, faggot minerals anyway? I swear to god, the EU is just a bunch of fucking trannies and niggers at this point.

too bad it's in a bottle, the plastic waste is huge. I use brita, doing two months with a filter.

The website cited as the main articles proof is 404...

I worked in water filtration for 18 years, r/o systems are good but the ones I installed (point of use, not whole house) needed 3 gallons of water to make 1 good gallon of water. I went with a Big Berkey. https://waterfilterguru.com/berkey-vs-reverse-osmosis/ Leaks may happen with the supply lines, the drain line can get clogged causing a leak at the air gap and if shtf you just need to find a water source for the Berkey and not rely on municipal supply.
