Question:
Does anyone know of a good water bottle? One I can refill each day and take with me.

I have a water bottle I got at Wal-Mart that I just love. They come in 32, 64, and gallon sizes, and they're enclosed in a little insulation pack-thing with a shoulder strap. I try to fill my 64 ounce one up twice a day - it really helps me keep track of my water consumption! You should be able to find one in the camping section there.

I use the brita water bottle. It has a filter so you can fill it anywhere and not worry about what is in the water. I had a hard time finding it, but finally went to a CVS and they had them there. Also you can get replacement filters!!

I use a 2 quart insulated cup with a long straw coming from it. It has a large hangle for carrying, and keeps all liquids cold all day. I purchased my first one at walmart, and my second one at a tom thumb gas station.

I have several Nalgene water bottles. They come in all sizes, but the best advantage is that they NEVER leak and they're virtually indestructable. I always take mine hiking and I've never had a problem with leaks or anything...I even had some friends run theirs over with their truck and it didn't even get crushed. You can usually find them at sporting good stores.

The best I've found is a cheap plastic 32 oz bottle with a sports sipper lid from walmart, it was only about $2 and comes with a plasic core that you freeze, and it keeps your drink cold forever.

I buy a 12 pack of 20 oz. bottles at wal-mart (walmart brand) I put 4 of them in the fridge, as I drink I refill , I usally drink 5 or 6 sometimes if I am lucky I can get all 8 in!! I keep those same bottles for a couple weeks then throw them out and put the other 4 in there.. This will last about a month , and is usally only $2.50 for the 12 Thats up to 160oz water a day ~ this seems to work well for me ....

Hi Friends, I live just west of Philadelphia and our local news ran a story. Saying that . . . the spring water bottles should never be reused. Unless the bottle was bought for that purpose only. Apparently . . . the soft/ thinp lastic holds on to germs. I also just use a bought sports bottle . . . Michele :)

I've been using Tuppeware's tall insulated cup with a straw. I think it holds close to a quart. Only problem is that it doesn't fit in the cup holder in the car. I think I'll just fill it after I get to work at the cooler. My husband has a great insulated sports bottle from a company called Polar. The insulation is sandwiched between the 2 layers of the bottle. He uses it when he cycles. I would try a bicycle shop or website.
