Tap water. Cant afford bottled and the tap is just right there.

You're absolutely right about the drugs & their metabolites in the water, not to mention all the other chemical crap! I have so many chemical sensitivities, that I need to filter my tap water even for bathing!

I use the Zero Water, too, it's great.

I fill a Culligan pitcher with filtered fridge water or tap, then, once filtered, I use that to fill my Zero Water Pitcher. That gets rid of most everything & takes care of the smells to which I'm very sensitive.

I'm going to build my own Berkey style gravity filter. There are lots of YouTube vids on how to do it & where to buy the cheaper, but equivalent ceramic filters! I can still use it if the power goes out & if there's ever an emergency, I can use it to make any kind of water potable, including, pond or rain water, without having to boil or treat it!

I drink both, but because of my really busy schedule I drink bottled water. And I fill it up like three or four times during the day

Bottled, even with the filter it tastes like crap.

Tap water is safe and very good in my country so bottled water is for emergencies only. I usually carry a bottle I can refill in my bag with me.

Filtered tap water in reusable water bottles. Less expensive and better for the environment.

That's me, exactly.

The only times I drink bottled water are in foreign countries with questionable water safety. Even then I try to find a safe place to refill my reusable bottle rather than contribute to a major global problem.

Also, if you're concerned about pthalates in your sex toys, you should avoid bottled water for the same reason.

im lucky to live in an area where the water company uses reverse osmosis for our tap water, making it some what safer than the surrounding areas, however we use a filter attacked to our kitchen sink anyways. i try not to drink to much tap water because of the dangers of fluoride in the water and that fact that it calcifies the pinel gland which is responsible for producing melatonin. I will drink bottled water when i can, but often times its just too expensive to get a 12 pack of it when i can drink from the tap.

Filtered tap water. The packaging on bottled water is terrible for the environment, so I fill up my own bottles when I need to.

Tap water unless I'm in such a rush that I forget to fill my reusable bottle up...in that case I'll grab a pre-bottled water, but I usually try to reuse the plastic bottle a fair bit before it hits the recycling bin.

I buy reverse osmosis water. If you ever drank the water where I live you wouldn't drink it either! I try my hardest to avoid buying bottled water.

Tap water, unless I'm out and about and get really thirsty, then I succumb to buying a bottle of water.
