| 1434764 | 2017-04-30 10:57:00 | I came across the following today with which I totally agree: www.stuff.co.nz I can't understand why anyone would buy bottled water when you can get the same thing out of the tap for a fraction of the price.:waughh: |

| 1434767 | 2017-04-30 19:57:00 | water bottles are awkward to clean and cost too much for anything half way practical. You can get bottled water for $1 at the supermarket in a bottle that's just as good as many of the cheap options and already filled. Personally I don't buy a lot of water but when I do I refill the bottle from the tap a few times before throwing it out. It's just about convenience. I totally agree that expensive branded water is ridiculous though. I also hate sipper bottles and always remove the lid so I can drink like an adult. | dugimodo (138) | ||
| 1434768 | 2017-04-30 20:19:00 | It is all just a very successful marketing exercise. If you want/need water in a hurry or where a tap is not readily available that is fine but otherwise there are far better uses for your cash. | CliveM (6007) | ||

| 1434771 | 2017-04-30 22:42:00 | Because you can't carry a tap around with you. But you can fill a normal drink bottle with tap water. I think when there are such things like the recent Hawkes bay contamination, fair enough, but those of us with properly treated water, come on..... I see someone says they do because they don't like the chlorine taste. So put a jug in the fridge! Chlorine clears quickly from the water.... |

| 1434772 | 2017-04-30 23:14:00 | ............and then you have all these people who can't go anywhere without clutching a bottle of water, as though they have become addicted. It's a relatively recent phenomenon :confused: | Terry Porritt (14) | ||
| 1434773 | 2017-04-30 23:16:00 | Chlorine clears quickly from the water.... Where does it go? From the jug in the fridge. Does it evaporate faster than the water, thereby leaving just water? |
