    • Tap water. If tap water isn't good enough by itself, use a filter system. That is what I use. Buying a bottle of water is fine for convenience sake when you are away from home, but it is totally unnecessary when at home.

    • Karen, where I live we have "hard water" - lots of minerals. Problem solved with inexpensive tool that mounts easily on faucet and filter. Cannot taste any difference in store-bought water and my filtered water. Much cheaper and healthier. Gonna go somewhere and want to take GOOD water. Take empty plastic bottles that have been cleaned and fill them from my water filtered faucet. THAT is simple plus it saves excessive cost at store plus saves gas needed for trip to store.

    • From the tap. Buy a tap water filtration system and enjoy great tasting water. Buy bottled water only when necessary (For e.g., while traveling) and recycle the bottle.

    • 1. Don't waste your money. I refill my plastic bottles with tap water
      2. I also drink sparkling mineral water in place of diet soda etc...and have lost twenty pounds in six months. Plus the beneficial minerals is a huge plus.

    • From the tap like bottled water comes from!!! Or go buy a home RO machine...but you don’t get any of the good minerals that your municipal water supply provides!!

    • How about your kitchen faucet? Works for me. Looks like water. Tastes like water. And it's far more reasonably priced!!!!

    • Buy bottled water sourced from natural springs. Check contents on the label always helps. Some bottled tap waters do have ph adjusted and has ingredients added for better health.

  • Most of what I read was crap. At 81 I DON'T want to have to start cooking things from scrap. I want the convenience and if this hasn't killed me yet I'll take my chances.

  • I stopped reading after #1
    Don’t buy bread. Instead buy a bread machine. Really !?!???
    You gotta be joking

  • So where do we find all the other things we should never buy? All I can see are bullshit ads

  • Drink it out of the tap. Our county water system published a report every so often that gives all the water contents. The system is always as good or BETTER than buying it at the stores. We have our bottles we fill when traveling. There is absolutely no need to waste money buying from stores. Now I agree some water systems may have a taste, but any county or city system has to meet the requirements for purity.

  • Disagree on the water. In Southern NJ, Best price in town is Wegman's,35 bottles, 16.9 ounces, at $2.49 Come on.

  • At least the water coming out of our counties water system has fluoride added to it. Who has actual fresh tasting bottled water?
