Save $600 By Drinking The Crappy Water That Comes Out Of Your Sink Faucet
The other night I accidentally watched a TV commercial.
I know, I know. But I was fumbling for the remote and the DVR and I let one sneak by.
The spokesman (“Jim” from The Office I think) was trying to sell me a PUR Water Filtration System, one of those pitchers you fill with tap water, leave in the fridge, and forget to refill. I tuned out most of it, as my attention was fixed to the couch cushion and the thrilling, impending conclusion of “I Shouldn’t Be Alive”, but a single sentence at the end of the ad actually caught my attention: “Save up to $600 a year when you switch from bottled water.”
$600? I want $600! But the observant and cautious consumer in me was skeptical of such claims.
