I am so sick of this. How dare they. Bottle deposits for soda and the like is fine by me, but when that jerk off governor who later got kicked out forced NY state to charge 5 cents per bottle of water? That is unconstitutional and criminal. What are we supposed to do? Haul huge amounts of the bottled water we drink and go to tons of time and effort to do so and get our money back? I also have alot of joint problems that would make it even harder for me to do that and for even a healthy person it is hard and inconvenient. We can't drink tap water becasue it's so polluted and tastes likes ****, they have basically forced us to do this. Those brita things also make the water taste like ****, are extremely expensive and don't fit on my bathroom sink. We need to lobby and start a petition to repeal that stupid law.
I live on LI and where I am, the tap water tastes horrible. We've gone up to Cooperstown and rented cottages but couldn't drink the water because it smelled like sulphur. Bathing in it was fine but to drink? Ugh.
OP, want your deposit back? Take it to the store. It's not that critical.

Really, your tap water is polluted (or are you just being precious?).
If it actually is polluted (rather than you talking out your A and waving your hands with conspiracy theories) and unsafe to drink you have a huge lawsuit against the local water authority that will result in a settlement so that you can buy all the landfill plastic bottles you want.
And what the heck are you drinking from your bathroom sink for - have you checked if that is even potable water? Try the kitchen like every normal human being in a house in America.
My water in the Bronx used to fizzle for 30 seconds when it came out of the tap...
After that, I switched to bottle water.
