    A manual hand pump water pump for 3 and 5 gallon jugs.

    You can fill the 5 gallon jugs up for $1.25 at those watermill type stations in parking lots and car washes, you don’t need a big bulky water cooler, just a little plastic hand pump pneumatic water pump you slap on top. Endless, clean water real cheap, much cheaper than bottled water and as good, and you don’t throw away a ton of plastic.

        Well in a lot of places there are these reverse osmosis stations at grocery stores and car washes in parking lots, you put a quarter in and a gallon of water comes out, just bring your own bottle. It’s as good as bottled water you buy at the store.

      My landlady put in a water filtration system for the whole house so I just drink water from the front of the fridge

      Just get a regular bottle and fill it up from the tap, easy way not be forced to drink car wash water while saving money on shop bought bottled water.

          Not the person you replied to, but the PNW (OR, WA, and BC Canada) has some fantastic tap water. Seriously the best.

        Drink charcoal filtered, reverse osmosis water and then try drinking tap water after that. It’s disgusting. Also, you can’t guarantee it’s purity, most public tap water contains small amounts of benzine and pharmaceuticals that governments say are below safe levels, that’s sub par to my standard.

        I used to say the same thing and drank tap water, then I tried filtered water for a while and theres no way I can go back. Try it.
