First of all I think the tap water here in NYC is delicious so there has been little need for me to purchase bottled water except for the occasional bottled water snob that visits from Scottsdale…and you know who you are!!!

So effective this past weekend (how timely with the marathon!) I was so pleased that NYC has added a 5 cent deposit fee for bottled water purchased in the state. Can you believe that we buy 28 billion plastic water bottles every year and that 8 of of 10 end up in a landfill? Think about it folks.
