    **** you just don't understand

    For me it's bottled water. I get offering it at gas stations, convenience stores, etc. Never know when you'll need it. But I've watched so many people use it as a primary source of water. It's moronic.

    Bottled Water averages like 1.22 a gallon or something like that. Tap water is universally available for under a penny. I've seen numbers from a tenth to 4 tenths. I'm guessing it depends on your local prices. Regardless a lot lower.

    I haven't ever seen for the life of me a scenario where bottled water pays off. People have brought up a tail gate.

    Let's say oyu have a large tailgate, 20 some odd people so you get 10 gallons of water. In bottled water you'll spend at least 10 bucks unless there's an amazing sale. I can get a 10 gallon igloo cooler for about 50 bucks. May not be igloo brand but I digress. So how does it make sense In a max 6 fills of that puppy, it's paid for itself. For those who played sports, you know those things last forever. Only expense is cups.

    Basically imagine a world. Everyone carries around a bottle It can be filled with water. You can fill it up at home, or at work, or if you're at a tailgate from a cooler. Imagine that world. How insane would it be? More importantly though, imagine how much money you'd save.

    I see 2 uses for bottled water. Disaster relief and for travelers who need some. That's it. I don't see it as an everyday consumer good.

    Mustard has different costs associated with it based on ingredients and scale. It's much cheaper to make French's Yellow than a local maple horseradish mustard.

    While I love me some yellow mustard on a hotdog or pork roll sandwich. I'd much rather have that maple horseradish on my sandwiches.

    Bottled water is WAY down the list. At the top are things like astrophysics, new jersey, and random threads.

    There's nothing to get about Jersey. Best state in the union. Name one other state who's produced as many bad mother****ers? It doesn't happen.

    New York is too expensive and Philly can get really sketchy really quick. Would hate to have a house and it go to hell. Not that I own a house. Plus have you ever tried to have a car in either of those cities?

    The latter was the bigger concern, obviously...
