I drink tap water because it's cheap. My tastes okay but it sometimes has a clorine taste or smell to it. I do sometimes buy bottled water but I tend to use it quickly and hate to have to store in the house in the gallon containers. I can't carry anything larger.
I drink filtered water at work. When I'm driving or out, I use a plastic cup with tap water.

I drink bottled water because it's portable. I got in the habit awhile back from bike riding and having a cat who HAD to tip over every glass he saw :D
I had to laugh at myself when George Carlin brought up how ridiculous it is though......... :D:D

I have a bottle that I refill from my own tap. Our water is cold and clean. Guess we are lucky. I do wash out the bottle with dish soap after each use then rinse well and dry. Never leave bottled water in a hot car and then drink it. Something leaches from the plastic when the water is hot. Heard that on a Dr. show recently. I have an ice cube tray that makes tiny round ice cubes and put those in the bottle first, then put into an insulated bottle carrier. Keeps things cold for hours.

I drink tap at home, but I either filter it, or leave it sit til the chlorine is gone. I like well water so much better than the city water I have!! I will drink bottled when traveling, I'm not a fan of drinking fountains!! Often, we fill up a bottle at home before we go!

interesting article on bottled water:
http://www.ehow.com/how_4889952_calc...led-water.html
we have a brita filtered picture, my husband uses. he will not drink from the tap at home.
i drink from the tap. I can't tell the difference between them.
the only time we buy bottled,and that would be by the gallon, is when we go camping...
i do reuse bottles a few times, i fill them half way with water, and freeze, and then add water to the frozen, to take with outside in the garden.
