    Best place to get Reverse Osmosis water?

    I do to my local grocery stores and fill up containers of UV treated, ultra filtered crystal geyser water for like $0.30 cents per gallon out of a vending machine thing. I think the local fish store is the same, but its easier to go to the machine for me.
