Our tap water is fine for drinking, though we have very hard water. It tastes fine, I'm used to it.
Tap water is much much cheaper and most bottled waters do not have the added fluoride which children who only drink the bottled water have been having teeth issues.
I don't like using all that plastic and all the garbage it creates.
I prefer to drink the water that has gone through the filter of my refrigerator however that is only a fraction of what I drink.

Tap water, taste fine to me amd is cheaper than bottled. DGD that lives with us says it has too much clorine. I bought her bottled for 3 yr.s and then she switched to filtered water in a pitcher, PUR.

I drink tap water at home and will buy bottled water if I am out and forget to take my own with me. I have to confess that I have a "berry propel" addiction so I add it in my water. Used to drink diet coke but have gotten myself to where I only have it every once in awhile.

I buy distilled water as I use it in my cpap machine. I drink filtered water here. When I lived in Seattle I could not stand the taste of the water there so I started filtering it and I still do, but the distilled water is for my cpap. Have a great night, Huggies, Fay

Our tap water is brown and smells rotten...so bottled water all the way. When I run the bath, it is like bathing in the sewer...needless to say I just shower. It is a shame, because I have a great jacuzzi tub. I have learned to love the flavored water so much I have given up on sodas!
