Tap water - I'm very privliged in that area. I'm from Denmark and the part of Denmark I live in probably has the best (clearest, cleanest) water. The place they tap the water they (Carlsberg I think) bottle isn't that far away from where I live! It's great - though I tend to forget that so sometimes I get shocked by how appaling some tap water tastes! LOL

I don't discriminate. Any water will do for me.

Brita, but I won't say no to tap if it means keeping myself hydrated.

I only drink tap water, I refuse to pay for water! There's nothing wrong with tap water plus it has fluoride for your teeth. I hate seeing water bottles being used once and then thrown away to be recycled. Do you know how long it takes plastic to break down? Thousands of years =O

I use a Brita jug. My husband is one of "those people" that keep putting it in the fridge empty. I just had to call him on it yesterday. I wasn't sure if it was him or our daughter. The look on his face gave it away.

All bottled water for me, but only because our tap water comes out rusty. It runs clear after a couple seconds, but I still know those pipes are rusty and I'm not drinking that crap!

Water in Boulder, CO is awesome. But anywhere else it's filtered or bottled.

I drink from the tap, although I'm not sure how safe that's turning out to be. I just got a postcard from the city saying that there's more radium in our water than is allowed. They don't tell us how much more, but I doubt a brita would filter that out!

I'm pretty sure that NJ tap water is poisonous. So I just drink from the fridge, which is just filtered tap. And even then, it tastes like crap. My brother has a Brita filter and that didn't even work. The water is still cloudy and has a weird after taste. NJ water is hopeless. If I lived in NYC, then I'll def drink the water straight from the tap tho.

I feel bad about it, but I drink almost completely bottled water (except at meals). I love Sam's Club black-cherry flavored water!

I can't even stand the smell of tap water. I have that exact same Brita Filter in pink and I love it!

Tap for me. But I think the dispenser on the fridge has a filter.

I used to have a Brita filter... then I switched to Multi-Pure. SO much better - it's a Consumer's Digest Best Buy (apparently) and in our research was one of the best on the market. http://www.multipureco.com/br170.pdf

Oshkosh has awesome city tap water, but I usually drink mine from the fridge water dispenser, which is basically an inline replaceable filter for the tap water. I'd never buy the bottled stuff.

we have a brita filter. we used to be big time bottle water drinkers, but lately we've found that it's much much less expensive to go the filter route.

We actually have one of the best water supplies in the country (Louisville, KY) so I feel safe drinking our water and I actually really do love the taste. Bottled water just seems so wasteful to me, but to each their own.

When I lived in NJ (my first 18 years of life) I drank tap water... it was delicious there. Now I live in FL and use bottled water (but not for like tea, spaghetti or something, then I use tap... when I was a kid I thought celebrities used fancy bottled water for everything... haha)

Yes, I've got that massive Britta Water storage thing in my fridge and I only drink tap water for both health and ecologically reasons.I don't think I couldn't bring myself to buy a single bottled water again.
