In Sainsbury’s (UK) you can buy a bottle of water labeled ‘Still Table Water’ there is no indication anywhere on the bottle that it is anything other than the stuff from the tap. Is it filtered etc..? If so, why doesn’t it tell the consummer what they are getting for their money? I smell a (water) rat.

I used to buy those 24-packs of Bottled Water for like per box. I’d go through 3-4 bottles a day.
My friend suggested I buy a Brita or Pur tank and just filter it using tap water. He said it’ll save money in the long run. But the filters have to replaced every 2 months, and they cost about -10 per replacement.
Which way do you use? Which one saves the most money? (And by Brita, I DONT mean the faucet extension - I’m talking about the pitcher)
btw, I live in NYC right now and lived in Miami for the last 10 years!

I don’t know WHAT they are called, but they go in the refrigerator. They have them at the store, but they look very cheesy and I got one a couple of years ago that never worked in the first place…so I want to spend more money and get something that works! Any ideas on where to look or what exactly they are called?

Don’t know about your water, but here it’s beige and wouldn’t drink it unless yo boiled it. So we have to buy bottled water and it cost money!!!!!!! If they fixed the drinking water it would make jobs for plumbers, pipe fitters and stuff like that. The bottle water lobbyist have done their jobs well, thanks.

I have had friends drink mineral water and swear that it is the greatest stuff ever! That it decreases their appetite, etc etc. But when I try to drink it, I feel like it is burning my throat. This could not be an allergic reaction could it? Though because after I finish swallowing the feeling goes away untill I take another drink. (P.S. yes I know I should go to a doctor, but as long as I stay away from mineral water I think I should be fine, but I do not want to waste my money to go ask the doctor a silly question that I am just mearly curious about.)

So I seriously think there’s something wrong with my neighborhood water, cause I’ve been running tests, and they’re not really great. I’ve added small tetras and clown loaches (I believe that’s how they are spelled) and they all died :(, except for the regular fish I have in the tank, they are alive, well and eating normally… So I think they are just used to the water…
Like that PuR water contraption? I really want a solid way of doing this, instead of finding a place that has good water, but have to spend a boat load of money for it and trying to avoid using too many chemicals?
THANKS!
EDIT
I’ve been using water conditioning stuff, even the "natural bacterial conditioners" and nothing is working… that’s why I’m looking for filter systems.

The area I am staying in for the summer has nasty tap water. I have a PUR water filter pitcher in my fridge but the acrid sweetness of the water remains. Is there anything I can do short of blowing money on bottled water all summer?
Thanks
I want water! Your suggestions of how to flavor the water do not help. I want water tasting water. :p

I just purchased a new double-wide mobile home, and my water is horrible. It’s full of iron and is turning everything orange. My clothes, my toilet bowls, bath-tub, and soon my hair! So I need a water softener bad. I just don’t know what kind I need. I need one that will work for my problems, but I don’t want to spend more money than I need to. What do I need to look for in a water softener? Can someone please help (preferably someone who has had experience with this…) Thanks so much!

I have several water iris’ around my pond but have never attempted to save a seed pod before. But with economic woes here in Michigan, I figure that I could save some money next spring by starting more water plants from seed to share with fellow "ponders" or just expand my own collection.

for awhile now I have made foods that have a metallic taste to them. I was blaming this on my stainless steel pots and pans but have since bought a couple non stick pans just for it to do the same thing. The dept of agriculture and the health dept both told me it was more than likely due to my water. I have well water. its clean, very good, but apparently full of metals…iron, copper, ect. They told me that while this will not hurt you, it does make your food taste funny. They also told me that I could get a water softener to take those out…We rent our home and I really don’t want to fork out 400 bucks for a softener that will have to stay here if we choose to leave. I have a 50 dollar pur water filter that fits on the tap and was wondering before i open it and install it, if it will work to remove these so that I can cook with my well water. I don’t notice the taste when i brew tea or coffee, mainly if i boil or simmer something….Right now I am using water from my mothers house to cook with. So do you think this will work? or will i be stuck forking out that money for a water softener? thanks!

I do not like the water that comes out of our faucet and we have a water softner. I’ve been buying bottled water for about a year now and I’m tired of spending the money. I’ve recently been looking at water coolers and you can get nice ones for around 100.00. I’d really like to purchase one of these but they make the Pur water coolers that you get straight from your tap instead of going to the store and filling up your jug. Does anyone know if this system really works and makes the water taste good, and in that case should I even bother and maybe just get a Pur Faucet (or other brand) attachment? I really can’t find any sites to help me compare or gather any more research. Do you have any suggestions based upon experience or any websites that may help me? I’m willing to try anything resonably priced as long as I get great quality drinking water.
