Its handy to have an emergency supply of water, doesnt take much to have an areas water supply tainted (chemical runoff etc) i dont keep crazy amounts, just enough to remain hydrated for a week or so (3 slabs of these bottles of water and a 20L jerry)
And can effect rainwater as well.
Oh great now you got me paranoid.
What with the terror level being raised and all…
Its an interesting discussion, since many water supplies aren't exactly super secure areas.
@Copie: In the USA a guy pissed into the town's water supply and they drained the whole dam http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/apr/17/portland-flush-…
@Matt88:
I know someone in australia who did the same to a big vat of drinking liquid to be bottled as a disgruntled employee
…or get it free from the sky
What sky water? Sure like anyone drinks that…
Plenty of people drink rainwater. Tastes better than bottled water too.
Remember 'Ice House' slabs being $5.00 back in 2011, and it was an exceptional deal then (we drink rainwater and use it for fundraising only).
Best-priced mineral water of late has been 600ml 12-packs (use-by late 2015) from our local Harris Farm Markets for $2.99 (cheaper than WW/Coles/Aldi/IGA). Has been that price for nearly 12 months.
Will probably continue to support Harris Farm in preference to the supermarket giants but still a good deal.
The cheapest I've seen.
I've seen them for $5 one time.
Does this water come from Great Southern land?
Yep, and comes in "Electric Blue" packaging.
this online only? doesn't seem to show up in SA :(
Not online only, just grabbed a pack. Cheers :)
k thanks for that, i'll have to check out the store tomorrow. online i just get a 'product not found' error when i enter my postcode…
My home built doomsday plane runs on water so this deal is prefect timing. Thanks OP
No sky water in the desert but we do have a Coles. I'm gonna get ready for …….(insert natural/financial/political disaster here)!
This is ozbargain. My water comes out of the tap into reused bottles.
Everyone who buys bottled water is a fluoride denier with rotten teeth.
Science has declared you must ingest fluoride into your stomach to clean your teeth.Fluoride does not clean your teeth. If you're going to be sarcastic, at least get facts straight.
Yes, information from the worlds "#1 natural health website". Such strong evidence base. Strong claims of toxicity to infants. Did you know that H20, O2, anything in general is toxic to anyone in sufficient quantities?
I don't get information from websites that anyone can setup. I get information from peer reviewed journals that have been confirmed hundreds of times in different studies by different scientific organisations. You should too.
The point I was making was that fluoride strengthens teeth but does not clean it but anyway.
@zhuang281: yes so keep it on your toothbrush not swallow it
do you understand the difference especially when people spend a lifetime of swallowing the small amounts it does add up. Also proven fact it is banned in many places and usa issued warnings not to give to infants yet here in au babies get formula with it. it gives bad reactions to some people and is mass medication without consent for entire populations. too much can cause teeth problemsNot sure if serious of just trolling. What is banned in many places? Infant formula or fluoride? You do realise fluoride is in all natural water sources so good luck banning nature. Can someone find a free Udemy course on critical thinking and skepticism for you?
USA (CDC) issued warnings due to fluorosis http://www.cdc.gov/fluoridation/safety/infant_formula.htm
BTW, you do realise that publci water fluoridation doesn't just add fluoride to water and is about maintaining guideline levels of fluoridation. Sometimes that means removing fluoride. If you're seriously worried then get a water filter that removes fluoride.
You know what you should really be worried about? Dihydrogen Monoxide http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html
@microsnot: "I would advise against fluoridation.. Side-effects cannot be excluded .. In
Sweden, the emphasis nowadays is to keep the environment as clean as possible with regard to pharmacologically active and, thus, potentially toxic substances."
- Dr. Arvid Carlsson, co-winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine (2000)
"The American Medical Association is NOT prepared to state that no harm
will be done to any person by water fluoridation. The AMA has not carried out any research work, either long-term or short-term, regarding the possibility of any side effects." - Dr. Flanagan, Assistant Director of Environmental Health, American Medical Association. [letter]"I am appalled at the prospect of using water as a vehicle for drugs.
Fluoride is a corrosive poison that will produce serious effects on a
long range basis. Any attempt to use water this way is deplorable."
- Dr. Charles Gordon Heyd, Past President of the American Medical Association."E.P.A. should act immediately to protect the public, not just on the cancer
data, but on the evidence of bone fractures, arthritis, mutagenicity and other effects." - Dr. William Marcus, Senior Toxicologist at E.P.A."Water contains a number of substances that are undesirable, and fluorides are just one of them" stated Dr. F. A. Bull, State Dental Director of Wisconsin, speaking at the Fourth Annual Conference of State Dental Directors.
You can watch the official full-length documentary for free at:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfiCP3HYxFgOther prominent dentists that have spoken out against fluoride include Dr. Thomas Connelly from New York City; Dr. Andrew Harms, former president of the Australian Dental Association; Dentist Hardy Limeback, PhD, from the University of Toronto's Department of Preventive Dentistry; Dentist Bill Osmunson from the Fluoride Action Network (FAN); and Dentist David Kennedy from the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), just to name a few.
"My [published] work showed that fluoride accumulates in the human pineal gland and lowers melatonin production in animals," says Dentist Jennifer Luke, PhD. "I find it extraordinary that no government promoting fluoridation has chosen to pursue these worrying findings."

In conclusion, our study suggested that low levels of fluoride exposure in drinking water had negative effects on children's intelligence and dental health and confirmed the dose-response relationships between urine fluoride and IQ scores as well as dental fluorosis.
They were $5.50 at coles about 3 weeks ago also. My sister has a cafe and stocked up. They sell them for $3 each and people actually buy them. Crazy I know.
I think I've been to that cafe - Broden Cafe?
Can't beat mine, bought the last 24pk 6 stacks for 95c each cool ridge 600ml water at ow, clearance item and still lasts till 2016.
Seems pricey to me; I get a thousand litres for $3.53 from my supplier.
Yes, but is it bottled, or d'you have to supply your own packaging? ;)
