I was always drinking bottled water, which was a PITA to carry home (not to mention to pay for ), constantly running out etc. I'm off work on holiday for 2 weeks after this week and I drink about 5-6 litres a day (mainly from the bottled water cooler at work) so I knew I was going to need to get a *lot* of bottled water in, so thought I'd try it the easy way..... I bought a Brita fridge filter jug last weekend and, although I can tell the difference between bottled water and Brita'd tap water, it's not too bad, and in the long run saves money
