    This week my Natures Springs Water home delivery price went up 20% per bottle, from p50 to p60. I only live 1k from their delivery center. This is of course not catastrophic but a 20% increase in anything is alarming, hope this is not a trend.

    Hmm...alot of places still charge P30 to P40 including delivery...maybe time to shop around. There is inflation in this economy, but not that much!

    mine increased in 3 years from 30 to 35 incl. delivery, what is pretty fair to me.

    But I admit I don't know the production differences, the label sais mineral water, whatever that means in the PI.

    Buyer beware....in Saudi this bottled 'spring water' often turned out to be filtered tap water. The only benefit was the 1000% profit going to the companies operating the scam. But I'm sure the consumer protection agencies in the Philippines are monitoring these products.

    Hmmm, helpful information would be, "I am paying pX for my home delivery water, tastes good, no problems, and recommend it?

    35P is what we pay delivered, and brought in the house. 60P seems steep to me!

    As far as things going up, Lee Plaza grocery prices have went up at least 10% across the board since a year ago, and more noticeable since they have been "remodeling".

    Overall groceries and almost everything cost a lot less in the Philippines than in So Cal though!

    Bottled water delivered in So Cal is $6 each which is 5 times plus the bottled water rate of 60P !!
