    I'm in Scotland and we're very lucky with our lovely water so tap water for me!

    I'm very fortunate to have great municipal drinking water, so I have a 20oz flip top water bottle that I fill up with tap water throughout the day. I don't like cold water, so straight from the faucet is just fine for me.

    Cheap gallon containers bottled water, Brita filtered. Our city water smells and tastes like chlorine, when tested, has shown too much fluoride.

    Any way that will keep my interest. Lots of tap water with fluoridation, Mio flavoured, Diet Pepsi, and soda water with lemon.

    We have had our embarrassing water moments here, too.

    We have a carbon filter system installed under our sink too. I'll drink tap water occasionally. I try to buy bottled water when I'm traveling.

    I'm am super curious how others choose to drink their water: tap, filtered (at home from tap), or bottled?

    I personally drink filtered water with a zero filter when possible, and sometimes when I'm in a pinch will buy "filtered" bottled water, but prefer not to because of the waste.

    We travel for work, and many times are in areas with notoriously bad water and even in one case there ended up being a town nearby that found high levels of lead in the water, which is why we tend to not trust tap water.

    So I guess I'm curious what you choose and why... and what state you live in if you feel comfortable!

    I either drink Fiji water bottles (the SUPER big ones...) and then re-fill them with water from my fridge which is basically tap water because the filter doesn't work.

    I live in England and mainly use a fruit infuser water bottle and fill it with tap water, and fill the infuser with chunks of apple or whichever fruit I fancy that day. It makes a change from drinking plain water. I'll occasionally buy bottled water.

    We lived in Memphis and they have great water there - something about the aquifers around the area that help filter it.
    We now live near Nashville and the water has a funny taste to it. So, we just got a cooler from Crystal Springs and it's great. At work, I just drink the tap water which seems to be a bit better than what comes out of the tap at home.

    Connecticut - At home right out of the tap, at work it is from the sink but put through a filter/bubbler type machine. I buy a case of water (which ever is on sale) to bring up with us to the campground on the weekends as the tap water there taste funny to me. It's not I am just one of those people who over think stuff :D;):p

    NYC... The tap water here smells like bleach to me. At home, we have a water cooler with hot and cold taps. We order water through Costco at a great price.

    On the go and at the gym I usually just buy bottled water.
