Can I send you my "almost" free water bill?.....My monthly water bill is OUTRAGIOUS!


Stop watering the lawn and do the laundry only twice a week. What you drink won't add up to $2.

And about those 20 minute showers......................


Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

You would be suprised.. A lot of folks drink flavored water. And a lot of that has calories...
That is the first step on the way to this product. Like many things, each step is not that silly, but the whole walk can be.

Step 1: Bottled water instead of tap. Makes sense because it is easier to grab a bottle of water and go than to find your empty water bottles, clean them, fill them with tap water, and go.
Step 2: That bottled water sometimes tastes worse than your tap water (but not in Amarillo), so you get one of those water flavor packets to put in the water to make it taste good.
Step 3: Even that takes too much time, so you buy already flavored water.
Step 4: You find out you've been drinking as many calories as you are burning due to your flavored water, so you look for "diet water".
Step 5: Then you wonder how you got to buying flavored diet water.

Note, I am still on step 1 as it is much easier to grab a sealed bottle of water than to find/clean/fill one of my bike water bottles. BTW, the Sam's water bottles fit just fine in my bike water bottle holder.
