3. I buy bottled water rarely

Our local water company had 2 major breaks and 2 minor ones in less than 2 years. I boiled water after those. I tasted the water out of the tap, and even though the co. said it was safe, it didn't taste good. So I boil water almost every day, a gallon or so. I'll buy jugs if I'm having company and then save the jugs for my use. When they get close to the expiration date, I replace them. I try to reuse, recycle or wear it out.

You do a lot to recycle and keep it out of the landfills. Thank you
