With that said...Could someone please enlighten me as to where I might recycle aluminum and glass?

Let's start using re-usable bags, too not only @ grocery but everywhere we shop. And please quit buying bottled water. What a waste of $$ and resources. If you don't want to invest in a whole house filtration system, why not get a Brita or similar? I buy 3-5 gallon party containers @ Walmart and use them to store filtered water in refrigerator. They're handy for hurricane season, too.
Hi. In regards to buying bottled water, perhaps you could help with information. I currently drink only zephyr hills water. The water here is absolutely terrible tasting. For cooking I use tap water and my dog gets the filtered water from the refrigerator door. I feel bad about drinking the bottled water but that brand is the only water here that tastes like the water back home. Will those pitcher filters get me that taste? I would hate to buy one and still get yucky water! Thank you.
