The True Cost of Bottled Water for Australian Families: Why You’re Paying More Than You Think

The True Cost of Bottled Water for Australian Families: Stop Paying Twice for What You Already Have
Many Australian families unknowingly pay double for water—once through their household water bill and again when purchasing bottled water. But the true cost goes far beyond the price tag. Let’s break down the numbers and explore why bottled water may be draining your wallet and compromising your health.
The Financial Breakdown
A 1-litre bottle of water typically costs around $3. A family of four drinking 6-8 litres of water a day (the recommended daily intake) faces the following costs:
- Daily cost: At 8 litres a day, your family is spending $24 per day on bottled water.
- Weekly cost: Over a week, this adds up to $168.
- Monthly cost: Each month, that’s $672 spent on bottled water.
- Yearly cost: Over the course of a year, your family could be spending a staggering $8,064 just on bottled water.
And remember, you’re already paying for tap water in your utility bill. On average, an Australian household pays around $1,200 per year for tap water, which is perfectly drinkable when filtered properly.
So, you're not just paying twice for water—you're effectively throwing away over $8,000 a year on something you already have!
The Hidden Health Risks of Bottled Water
On top of the financial hit, bottled water often contains harmful chemicals and microplastics that leach from the plastic into the water. Over time, these contaminants can affect your family’s health, leading to issues like hormone disruption and immune system damage, which may mean higher healthcare costs down the line—more doctor visits, medication, and overall stress on your health.
