Water from the tap: basically free
Gotta pay 399 for the glass though.
If you live with your parents, yes.
Tap water in the US costs on average about $0.01 per gallon or less. People typically drink a gallon or less per day, so about $0.30 per month. Your water bill is pretty much not affected by the tap water you drink, just the water you use for everything else.
Bottled water is easily hundreds of times the cost.
