    Where I live, the tap water is just fine, so I prefer tap water because I find it more normal-tasting than bottled water.

    I personally drink more water from water bottles, however, lately, I've been boiling tap water and putting it in my tea. I feel like I'm fine with either because I think it's more of how safe I feel drink one over another.

    Both is fine for me. I like bottled, and tap water. I always filter my tap water though to make sure it's very clean and fresh! I don't get why people use up tons of bottles when they could just buy a filter, one bottle and keep using the same bottle. Seems fine to me.

    I'm not too fussed when I'm thirsty, either will do. Tap water is usually easier to get to so I'll just go far that. I'm not usually one to drink water regularly though, since I go for tea most of the time. o3o

    Definitely bottled water because tap water is unsinkable in my country. You'd get sick trying to drink it and bottled water is the only way to go in Malaysia. In Holland I don't mind drinking from the tap since it's safe.

    Bottle water, or in my case I use a filter. Mostly because when I decide to go and refill the filter, there are black specs left from when I poured the water in the filter. Plus everyone in the city I live in tells you not to drink it straight from the tap.

    I hear all the time that bottled water is just tap water thats been filtered, but I still find it tastes better and quenches my thirst more.
    I'm also kind of paranoid about the water here because it's a city and the hydro is old and yeah. Also a city near here had an e-coli incident in the 2000's

    Tap. Unless I'm on the go. Then I'd gladly take a water bottle.

    I would say bottled, because it's filtered better BUT you can buy things to filter the tap, and it helps the Earth.

    But yeah. Like the tap where I live is actually fine to drink, but two of the cities right next to us- the people who run the plant suck and it get undrinkable a lot and the other one is like...sulfur/well water and looks physically dirty and makes people sick. .-.

    I have both, I buy a bottle of water once it is gone I keep filling it up with filtered tap water as sometimes my tap water tastes somewhat like a swimming pool Although most of the time it is fine.

    The only advantage that bottled water has over tap water is that you can take bottled water with you.

    That said, I own a water filtration system that hooks up directly to the tap, so I refill all of my water bottles from there with pH 9 water. So, for me, 'bottled water' and 'tap water' are synonymous. I will go through a bottle of Vitamin Water about three more times before throwing it out (yes, I fill them up from the tap and reuse them).

    Bottles, definitely. I feel like the water here is very unhealthy, and barely existent.

    I don't really drink either- I have a water filter on my fridge, so I get water from there. It's very clean and tastes nice- I'm very picky about the taste of water, I don't like it tasting too chemical-y.

    The tap water where I live isn't quite safe to drink, so I'd drink from water bottles. But my dad buys drinking water in plastic gallons, so I usually get my water from there.

    Water from the tap, as long as it's filtered~!
