Generic spring water in a gallon jug tastes so much better and it’s 96 cents.”””

Sorry to burst your bubble, but those dispensers of ‘spring water’ are really attached to the local municipal water source & are highly filtered.

I wonder how often those filters are replaced???

Also- I live on a private well.

IF I pumped 1,000 gallons a month (for my horses) at .96 a gallon, that would cost me $96. My current power bill is $63.12 and that power is also used for all of my appliances & computer & TV’s, and forced air heat distribution.

Nope. The spring water is spring water. I read the label.

Filtered municipal water is sold as drinking water. I got that one time and it definitely tasted worse than the spring water. It also has a bit of a color tint to it.

BTW. I drink a lot less water than your horses, and if I had horses I wouldn’t give them bottled spring water.

$96 should be $960 Too early to calculate correctly.
