I get water with lemon almost always. Here's why:

I don't drink soda and I rarely drink alcohol with meals.

Tap water in Florida tastes horrible, so I need to add lemon to make it drinkable for me.

I WOULD pay for bottled water but no one ever offers it to me.

I always ask for half a glass of water or a juice-sized glass of water with 1 piece of lemon to kill the taste. If they bring me a full glass, then I ask them for more lemon. I really only need a few sips with my meal but most wait staff don't actually LISTEN when I tell them I only want a little bit of water.

But again - if they offered to sell me a bottle of spring water I would gladly pay for it. They never do.
