Where do you get water when you're traveling?

Anonymous
Do you buy bottled water the whole time? Fill up water bottles from the hotel faucet? Other ideas?

In the U.S.

In the US I drink tap water, unless I happen to be in Detroit or that town in Ohio with the toxic fire.

We buy bottles everywhere. $10/day to stay hydrated is well worth it.

Fiji or Poland Spring. I don't smoke, don't own a car, bring canvas bags everywhere, etc. Bottled water is my one big detriment to the environment.

We usually just get water from the faucet to fill our water bottles. At hotels with a workout room, we fill up from the water in there.

We swing by a Target and buy a 24 pack for $2.99.

Are you seriously asking where to get water?? You clearly are not able to function in the adult world.

As most people got judging by their answers, I'm trying to balance taste (prefer bottled) with environment and finances (tap would win). And I'm curious which way most people go. I travel a lot when you add up both work and personal travel (adds up to about 3-4 months every year).

I bring a water bottle with me and fill it from the tap. If the tap water is gross I fill it with ice from the ice machine because they are usually filtered.

The only place this doesn't apply is Disney World where the water taste horrible. But the restaurants there give you free cups of ice water so I just go grab a couple (in summer they have them on the counter for people so you don't even need to ask) and fill a bottle from that.

The sink. 90% if not 99% of tap water in the US is just fine.

Those ice machines are NEVER cleaned.

It depends on where I am. Phoenix—go to the store and buy gallons of water, the tap water there is TERRIBLE. I’ll also only get iced tea at Starbucks in AZ because they filter their water. Breckenridge, tap is fine. If we travel by car we usually bring water to last a couple of days.
