By the way, how about setting up a service like Amazon's, having someone come to your door with an empty bottle, filling it from your tap, and charging the customer for quick water delivery?--[[User:Jojonete|Jojonete]] ([[User talk:Jojonete|talk]]) 09:14, 5 November 2015 (UTC) | By the way, how about setting up a service like Amazon's, having someone come to your door with an empty bottle, filling it from your tap, and charging the customer for quick water delivery?--[[User:Jojonete|Jojonete]] ([[User talk:Jojonete|talk]]) 09:14, 5 November 2015 (UTC) | ||
β | :I like that idea! Here's a | + | :I like that idea! Here's a simliar variation, in case a person doesn't want a stranger coming into their house to use their own tap. There can be a loose network (i.e. coordinated via the Internet) of a million "affiliated" households, servicing the needs of a million different customers ordering water, and then a bunch of dedicated couriers traveling the short distance between the nearest affiliated independent water micro-fulfillment center (AIWMFC) and the customer. Or maybe cut out the courier -- the AIWMFC's CEO (or her husband, or one of the kids, or maybe even the dog) could don a hat with the company's logo and walk the bottle over to their neighbor. This company could probably get times down to an average of just a few minutes rather than that insanely long 1 hour that Amazon.com has. And this could bring speedy delivery even to small towns or rural areas rather than just major urban centers. [[User:N0lqu|-boB]] ([[User talk:N0lqu|talk]]) 20:55, 5 November 2015 (UTC) |
Cynic here! Bottled water are also oft used as a vanity item - display of wealth. [[Special:Contributions/141.101.79.43|141.101.79.43]] 11:28, 5 November 2015 (UTC) | Cynic here!
