People claim that Fiji Water, Acqua Panna, Voss, Waiakea and Evian are “rich people” water because they are “expensive” but they arent that expensive at all I personally have Voss, Fiji, Waiakea volcanic water, Acqua Panna and Evian and they aren’t expensive at al.

Tap water costs ~ $0.001 per pint. Fiji is about 1500 times more expensive

Expensive is subjective. I think paying for any bottled water, especially the ‘designer’ brands like these (for lack of a better term) is a scam. Just get a water filter for home or drink from the tap and enjoy that sweet sweet fluoride.

As an example in the Vancouver area they pull water from the local watersheds and mountain runoff , treat it and it comes to your tap. But also Nestle siphons of a shitload of it too from the same aource and bottles it and charges you a gigantic markup to drink what is practically free. The high end brand waters aren’t any better than that, they just cost more

Unless you live somewhere with unsafe drinking water. Bottled water is an expensive, wasteful, polluting scam.
