In my opinion water bottle shouldn't be re-used more than say 5 times. There can be an issue of cleanliness, you know, rapid multiplication of bacteria!? Clean your water bottle after every use and then throw it away when it starts to look cruddy.
Frugality - PAYING UP THE WAZOO FOR WATER
If you have to buy a bottle of water here's what you do....Don't grab a bottle inside the coolers near the check-out, look down the isles of the store to find water. Instead of paying $1.50 for one 16 oz. bottle, you can often get 6-8 pack for $3 or $4 bucks, or you can buy a whole GALLON (that 128 oz.) for only a dollar! That's like 8 water bottles for one dollar. So, let's see, that's only 12 cents per bottle! (of course you have to buy some bottles in the first place to fill up.)
Also, I think that some crazy chemicals can leach into the water. Below is a website explaining that my advice is totally unfounded....but listen to me anyway because I've got a mom's intuition and that's much more reliable than any FDA study!
