I love San Pellegrino, but I'm wondering if there's a cheaper alternative that tastes just as good....any suggestions?

I like Highland Spring (Scottish) and also Tau (Welsh).

About the same price per bottle but a 1l bottle rather than a 750 ml one.

Don't think you can beat it tbh but I usually only buy near payday [ grin].
Badoit is nice but same price range.
Highland Spring is my next choice.

I love the Brecon one sold in sainsburys. And also Buxton. San Pel on a very special ocassion!

Soda stream - not kidding, freshly fizzed, it's fantastic.

I've stopped buying San Pelligrino since I found out they were owned by nestle. They also own Buxton too

Badoit - it's my treat when I want something really nice that's not alcoholic. Somehow the bubbles feel smaller than other fizzy waters.

I used to live abroad, and the chinese restaurant we went to had one that was very unusual - I don't remember the name but it tasted very chalky and was excellent to settle down an acid stomach. That is my second favourite.

Zippy I didn't know that about Nestlé that's SP and Buxton off my shopping list then....

Thanks everyone else for the suggestions...I'll give them a try!
