How does the water from the Nubo bottle compare to store bought water, and especially my water from an exotic Pacific Island?

First of all, Nubo is fresh, not weeks, months, or up to 2 years old and sitting on a store shelf. Second, Nubo is safer and the water taste is excellent. Third, many store bought single use water is merely filtered tap water. And fourth, the cost of using Nubo is about 15 cents a gallon vs over $10.00 per gallon for the expensive “tropical island” water products.
