Sierra Springs

At the fair, we managed to get signed up with a water company. Sean and I have been discussing this for almost a year. We buy bottled water non stop. I would say we spend a good $40 a month on water alone. Well walking around the fair, we saw the stand for Sierra Springs and they had their water stands set up and distributing water. We helped ourselves and the salesman pitched his deal. I couldn't believe how cheap it was to rent one of the stands. It's only $5 a month for the stand and $5 bottle deposit per bottle and they are 5 gallon bottle's. It's a year lease and if you get out of the lease it's $200 bucks but you can stop buying water anytime. So you just have to pay $60 for the year and call it good. We thought it was a great deal and it's going to save us so much money on water. PLUS no more plastic bottles adding to the never ending recycling! Two for One deal, who doesn't like that! 

The one we are renting is a nice sleek black system almost identical to the one above. It has a hot and cold setting. On the hot setting there is a child safety feature where you have to push a button in and press down the lever @ the same time in order to get the hot water, so that was also a plus. We really didn't want the hot water but found out you can turn a switch off in the back of the unit and it will just make the water room temp. Score for Sean because he loves his water at room temp. This was a great thing for our family to invest in.
