How to Save Money on Bottled Water

Water is essential for a healthy lifestyle and is also fundamental in any weight loss program. Many people rely on bottled water to supply daily water needs but bottled water is costly. Read how to save money on bottled water while still getting enough water to drink.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Water filter
• Freestanding water filtration system
• Sports bottle

1. Make a commitment to drink the daily recommended amount of water. A person of average weight should drink eight to ten 8 oz. glasses daily, but an overweight person should drink more. They should drink about half their body weight in ounces.
2. Buy a water filter either for the faucet or the refrigerator water dispenser. Water filter systems such as PUR Water are also available for water pitchers. Home improvement and hardware stores carry water filtration systems. Save money by not having to buy bottled water.
3. Order a freestanding water distillation or filtration system from a company such as Pure Water, Inc. Using a filtration or distillation system requires a one time cost rather than the continued the cost of purchasing bottled water.
4. Purchase reusable sports bottles to hold the filtered water to create your own bottled water or reuse an empty plastic bottled water bottle. Filling bottles saves money but allows the filtered water to be portable, a major benefit of bottled water. Weight loss clinics, health clubs and mass merchandisers carry a variety of sports bottles.
