    The big green gatorade water bottle you see at many sports. It holds so much water

    Camelbak for the gym
    Empty Gatorade bottle for going about town, air travel or anywhere I'm liable to lose the bottle.

    Depending on how far Im running. I have dozens of different sizes and styles and of course Camal Bak. My favorite though is an insulated bottle sleeve from Outdoor Products. I buy them at Walmart for around $3.00. It will hold any brand 750 ml bottle.

    It has a hand strap and a clip. The good thing is once I empty the bottle I can trash it and not have to carry an empty bottle, or stop at a drive in and buy another bottle of water.

    Brita squeezable filter bottle for me. I like the idea of being able to fill it at any tap... DH uses the same type bottle, without filter, for his sports drinks.

    I like the idea of this, but I haven't seen the brita bottles in a 32oz. I'd have to leave my desk 900 times a day.

    I keep my eyes peeled on woot and active gearup for stuff like this. Spent $14 for my 20 oz Ultraspire bottle. The sleeve has a pocket on it that holds my gels, car key, etc. Got my wife's water bottle (which is basically the same thing without the pocket) for $10.

    For something like a hydration pack I want to go with a bigger named brand but for a water bottle... eh, I can't bring myself to spend twice as much on something I'm going to beat the hell out of over the next year.

    I don't like water bottles at all. I feel like a baby taking a bottle when I drink from a bottle like that.

    I like the plastic reusable cups that look like a Starbucks iced coffee to go cup. The ones with screw on lids and plastic heavy straws. The invention of those cups has made me drink much more water than before! I keep them everywhere, at work, home, family's homes, and always refrigerated.

    I also have a new variation on that with a plastic straw that connects to the top and can be "flipped down", really handy.

    Camelback - I have one at work and one at home. Each one holds 24 ounces of water so I drink one at home and one at work and with the glass of water I have at each meal that wraps up my 8+ glasses of water each day.

    I had a Camelbak but I didn't like having to bite to get a sip. I just bought a Tervis water bottle online. Just used it a day, but I think I am going to like it, they have a lot of fun styles. It carries 24 oz and can fit in cup holders. It is well insulated so the water states cold.

    I have a 1.5 liter camelbak hydration pack that I use for running. It has the bite mechanism so I don't have to do anything except run. It's really light and comfortable, I bought it through heartratemonitors.com, free shipping. I also use the Contigo bottles mentioned a few times above, they're spill proof and shatterproof. I have the 24 ounce ones, I got them at Costco. All are BPA free.
