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.
