    Yes!
    We buy our drinking water.....pure water, the one that comes in a cask, not spring water. That way I know we're not drinking chlorine, fluoride, aluminum or any other crap.
    Apparently if you leave the tap water in the glass for a few minutes before drinking most of the chlorine will evaporate.
    Those Brita type filters don't get rid of fluoride, only a reverse osmosis filter can do that.

    We have one of those Sunbeam benchtop water filter thingies. It's great! It even encourages my DH to drink lots of water I love that I can get it out at room temp or chilled.

    My pet hate is buying water, so I refuse to do that, but the filters are good. Those Brita jugs are fantastic too!
