    Bought a few stainless steel/aluminum water bottles today! On track to stop using plastic water bottles all together.

      Awesome! I drive my family nuts with the amount of water bottles I own but I really don't care haha I know I'm not using plastic AND it helps me keep track of how much water I am drinking every day.
