Bottled water is fine, you can buy it by the case and they deliver it for you. Works for me. Penny pinching is hard here, everything is so expensive, because its all imported. I shipped thru amerijet and if you are close to Miami, you could use tropical shipping which is very economical and gets here in 7-10 days, unless customs is on strike. Hehehe, this island never ceases to amaze me.
