This writer recently purchased an under sink water filter (like the one pictured above) from Home Depot. The selling price is only $130.00 and it installed in about half an hour with regular house tools. Remarkably, the water tastes better than tap or bottled water. Here's the math: Over a full year this great tasting filtered water cost 47 cents per day for an unlimited supply. If you buy two bottles of Dasani (Pure municiple tap water from Brantford) a day for a full year you will pay $1095.00. Tim Horton's ain't got nothing on these guys. For that same amount of money you could buy 50 litres of gasoline twenty times. That's twenty fill ups or even more if you drive a sexy Honda Civic! (almost half a year!). So if you wish to worship the advertising and marketing gods keep buying the likes of Dasani. If you want to outsmart em all, buy a good water filter and drink excellent tasting water till the cows come home.
