I wish they'd charge a 25cent deposit for every plastic bottle sold.


Bottled water at sam's club is 15 cents per bottle. You are not supposed
to refill the disposable bottles, due to sanitation concerns. If you carry
a refillable bottle you have to hang on to it.



We have a better system here. I go to the local grocery store and pay 65
cents for a 4 liter refill of city tap water run through a reverse
osmosis/filtering and ultra-violet light process machine. Tastes much
better than any mineral water.
