Bottled Water

615337 Bottled Water Mon Apr 27 10:17:57 -0700 2009 6 23 Ontario (including Toronto) 0 4632547 I tend to drink a lot of bottled of water, because I'm out and about a great deal and can't take the sugar in sodas and juices. I generally buy or re-use glass bottles, not plastic (believe it or not, I can taste the oils, and the plastic melts if you try to wash it in overly hot water). Anyway, I'm a wee bit resigned to the $25/12 bottles of pricey aqua, but would rather buy in bulk to save costs if possible. Anyone have a great suggestion for buying cheapo glass bottles of water? Bulk would be ideal. Thanks so much! Mon Apr 27 10:17:57 -0700 2009 145946 Phrizzie 1 4632654 why not use a glass lined thermos bottle?

Telling the poster not to drink bottled water is off topic and those posts will be removed.

They're great and weigh very little, and they're readily available.

It seems I have a very particular sense of taste, and prefer to drink water from glass. The thermos is an interesting idea, but may be a bit bulky to carry. The search continues ...
