Big W - Big Water Ripoff

(Image deliberately blurred to protect the guilty).

The sale of Water is one of the highest profit making areas of our time.
It is kept in the hands of few Corporate Giants.

Many companies have been exposed as selling so called 'spring' water, only to be examined under the microscope as not what the claims are.

Big W currently sells a 24 pack for 600ml water for AUD$9.48 (rounded up to $9.50). This equates to water costing the buyer $0.65 per litre.

Water is 'currently' available from the tap at approx $0.85 per 1,000 litres.

Water is also sold to Coca Cola at $1.40 per 1,000,000 litres.
