Crystal Quest Water Filter
What are you doing for drinking water? If you are drinking tap, using a Brita pitcher, or buying bottled water, consider a water filter. You get better quality water at a better price - and do better to the environment (no plastic waste) and your body (no nasty chemicals leaching into your water.)

I recommend this company from the research I've done on water filtration. Great prices and a great product.
