At this point I am beginning to regret the purchase.
I honestly thought that the outrageous price per bottle was offset by a deposit on the bottles themselves - you know, like every other place you buy water from, locally.
So when I noticed no difference in my bill after two deliveries - I wrote them. They said they weren't charging a deposit. So I can only guess that the price for a 5 gallon bottle of water is actually 12.99 - with no deposit.
You know, I could have sworn that years ago when we got water delivered, the price wasn't anything NEAR this. I go to ReadyRefresh site, and as far as I can tell, every large bottle is presented with an "introductory rate". There's precious little information on what to expect or how long the introductory rate is good for.
My SOLE reason for water delivery was reliability - I'm sick to death of going to places like BJ's or Lowes and finding they have no bottles left, or that the device for collecting the deposit is broken - and has been broken for YEARS.
Damn. I was really liking having water delivered. If there isn't an alternative, this was a waste of time. I'm not spending 13 bucks a bottle - TWICE what I pay elsewhere - just to get it on my front porch.
