@icedquinn my water is "free" except for the marginal cost of electricity, this water is $1.73 per gallon, and walmart (last time i cared to look) had $0.69/gal - definitely less than half the cost regardless.
But what's the issue you take with it? Is it because a tote that size holds >400 gallons and can be filled for some marginal cost (say a quarter ($0.25) a gallon at an RO facility)?
or is it because it's non-returnable, lol
