The Challenge today is to make your own bottled water. Companies have admitted that bottled water is no more than tap water in a bottle. Keep your bottles and reuse them. If you replace soda or bottled water with your own, you will save $1.30 and it’s kinder to the earth. If you drink 2 bottles a day, that’s $2.60 in savings.Send that $2.60 to pay down a debt or put it in your savings account.

That’s an awesome tip. Not to mention, it saves on the environment. =)
Pretty much already doing it. I used to throw a lot of plastic away.
Great idea!
Thank you! I have coworkers who make fun of me for refilling my water bottles every day. They pay for water out of the soda machine, and they are basically paying to drink the same water I get for free.
… and they are paying more than the price of fuel for it. Re-use that bottle until it just can’t make another trip.
Tip: My wife and I freeze a few to take as ’spares’ so as to have cool water through the day. By the time we are ready for them, they are usually ready to drink.
Great tip. The only thing to be careful of is using plastic bottles that are only meant to be used once because of the chemicals leaching out of the plastic into the water. You can tell this by the number on the bottom of the bottle. If it’s a [1] or [2] then it’s a one time use. Those are usually recyclable. Bottles with [5] on the bottom are usually the ones that can be used over and over without leaching.
