hi there, in my country, a litre of drinking water is about IDR 2,000. it's about $0.24. it's recently recommended not to consume drinking water in plastic bottles, as it will affect our healthy. only certain types of plastics are safe enough to put water or food in.

Hi friend, like plastic bottles, tinned and canned foods are not good for health. But necessity and availability makes people to never mind that. thanks for participating discussion. Happy Myloting :-)

I am not entirely sure how much it costs here, because I rarely buy botled water. Our tap waer is very good. I do own a couple of bottles tha once contained waer, and I use them to re-fill with tap water, and take with me when I go somewhere. It's quite handy and eccoomical to recyle these botles rather than oninuously buying new ones.

The price is almost the same here in my country... just a little cheaper... depending on the brand... i always take a bottle of water with me whenever i travel... since i always crave for one... especially when i walk under the sun for a long time... good thing a bottle of water is not very expensive...

I think this is not expensive. Here I think 1 litre bottle of drinking water is about USD0.70 but I think 250ML of it will sell better. Because not many people like buying so large size of drinking water. I love China

I'm from India as well. We normally carry water bottles from home while going on journeys, why waste money for just plain water? Isn't filtered water from home better than (or as good as) the mineral ones?

I think a liter here costs abot .69. I usually buy water in six packs of about 16.9 oz. bottles. I think the water is good for me, so I will buy it. Water is the stuff of life and I think that everyone should be drinking it. I really like it. There is nothing better when you are thirsty.

A one litre bottle in the US, at least in Virginia is about $.99. But you can buy a case (24 cans) of 12 once bottles for about $4.39.

A one liter bottle costs a bit over a dollar here in my area, Florida. I would love it though if it only costed thirty-three cents.

Hmmm... i always buy mineral water, all the time, if i really feel too thirsty, then i ll just stop by for some cool drink, but or else, water is the first essential part for me, infact, i always carry a small bottle in my bag always.

I'm in the U.S. and bottled water can cost anywhere from $.89 (on sale) for 32 ounces to $3.00 for the same. Americans love to show their status with brand names so Fiji water and the like is expensive and popular. I have a $7 Brita water filter--only for my mom, who doesn't care for the taste of my tap water. I love my tap water. I buy the cheapest bottled water bottle about twice a year, just so I can refill it with my tap water for trips in the car. Our bottled water is usually just tap water, not spring water or anything special. But Americans are so afraid of germs and contamination that they'll spend anything to avoid it--and if they can impress their friends with a premium name on the bottle, so much the better!

i dont buy water when i go to journey we have brita at home and we just fill up big bottles that we have at home and put it inside the fridge for it to get cold and be ready for a long journey. but bottled water here cost around 1.50 - 2 dollars. it is more expensive if that one litter is juice or cola. happy posting
