My tap water has so much iron and chlorine in it that it burns through a Brita in about two weeks with the amount I drink. My whites are all pink and my hair turns red every time I live on this side of town (3rd time in 9 years). So I go through a 2.5 gallon jug of Zephyrhills drinking water and 8 24 oz sport bottles of the Zeph a week. When I'm at work, I'll drink water from the filtered taps any time. But at home, it's just bad. I'll do the Publix brand water, too, but the Zephyrhills tastes better. If I have the option, I choose Dasani or SmartWater just because of the taste.... it tastes more like the well water I used to have and love as a kid. Just can't afford them on a larger scale.

But, you didn't have "health reasons" on the poll. I caught c. diff when I was in college from one of those refillable things at the grocery store where you can refill your own jugs. I refuse to use them... and then I saw a thing on the Discovery Channel where they actually swabbed the inside of the mouth of the tubes that dispense the water and the amount of insect droppings and bacteria freaked me out. I can't even walk past one of those things any more. eeeew!
