Penny Pinchin' Mom

*CLOSED* Grateful Giveaways #2: Zero Water Dispenser & Filters

This post may contain affiliate links. That means if you click and buy, I may receive a small commission. Please see my full disclosure policy for details.

Necessity is the mother of invention. ZeroWater® technology was developed to solve a mother’s fatigue from dragging gallons of bottled water jugs home from the grocery store. With the only in-home filtered water system that meets the FDA’s definition of purified bottled water, ZeroWater’s patented five-stage ion-exchange filter consistently delivers the only filtered water to measure 000 parts per million of total dissolved solids.

What does this mean to the average household? Great tasting water that is good for you, with ZeroWater’s patented technology you can have water free of heavy metals (arsenic, chromium-6, benzene, lead, aluminum, chlorine, chromine, copper, perchlorate, mercury) that have dissolved into your drinking water.

I’ll admit that I do not drink much water.  I KNOW it is good for me, but it always has a “taste” to me.  I’ve tried all of the filter systems, pitchers – you name it.  They either don’t work or they filter black carbon deposits into my water.  So I was a little aprehensive when I recieve this one to try.  I was pleasantly surprised.

This one really did work. I love that I can actually test my water for impurities.    The water tasted good – pretty darn good.  I am so pleased that I now am drinking more water (and I am sure my doctor would be as easily impressed).

What is great is that Zero Water has released a special offer for Penny Pinchin’ Mom readers!  If you use the code zwmom at checkout, you will be able to save $15 off of a two pack of filters or an 8 cup dispenser!  I love disounts!!!

    We live in a rural community with horrible water. I have tried all to filter systems, but haven’t found a good one yet.

  8. LeAnna F says

    Pure clean water is a must for me due to the fact that I turned my life around the begining of the year and I am currently training for my first ever triathlon, since I have changed my habit to drinking more water my children have since followed WILLINGLY!!!!

  9. Jade Burdette says

    We live in Overland Park but our water tastes and smells funny. Which we have worked around by buying water. But with a new baby coming and formula to make, we’re going to need a lot of water. It would be so nice to not have to buy it.

  20. Heather says

    We are always getting letters from the water company telling us the water has bacteria. Clean safe water is a must. I am afraid to let my daughter drink the water.

  21. Kay C. says

    Pure, clean water is not only important for humans, but also our pets. The pets at our household and next-door neighbor’s will not even drink the water that comes out of our faucets. A system like ZeroWater is better for our planet than bottled water.

  23. Kay C. says

    I “like” you on Facebook and many of your posts on my news thread have saved my family money. Thank you!

  24. tiffany says

    Drinking pure, clean water is one of the best ways you can do to nourish your health. Also, bottled water primarily puts a strain on the environment and it actually requires a lot of energy and money to generate and ship bottled water. Another health concern is that bottled water transfers to many chemicals into the water and researchers believe that certain chemicals from the plastic bottles are linked to some cancers…Not something I am comfortable with at all.

  25. dee V says

    We dont drink a lot of water because of the taste from the tap and the cost of store bought! This would mean so much to our family! We WANT to drink water, but go for something from the fridge instead. This would be healthier!

  27. Joye Foote says

    Always important to have clean water from the taP, SAVES MONEY FROM NOT BUYING BOTTLED WATER!

    Thank you!

  67. Amy Davids says

    We have well water, and the water that comes from the tap is horrible, would love to be able to have clean refreshing water to drink!

  76. Victoria McKnight says

    We live in a city that highly over chlorinates our water so much you can smell it..after watching the documentary “Tapped” I am trying my best to not buy bottled water, having this in the fridge would be awesome I have kids at home that love to drink water and play sports but not the water that comes form the tap!!
    Thanks..and I also follow you on FB 😀

  81. Shae says

    We have gotten letters before that our city water wasn’t up to the best standards so pure clean water is very important to me because my children drink water all the time. I don’t want to be damaging their little bodies with pollutants.

  82. Stacey Walker says

    Pure clean water is important for my and my childrens health. Don’twant any pollutants in our body.

  99. Kim McCulley says

    I drink a lot of water, and it’s important that it be clean. I also like it to taste great…even when I’m making tea.

  102. Jennifer White says

    Clean water is important for my family. We encourage our kids to drink it all the time. They are only allowed milk or water.

  106. Eileen says

    Having clean and portable water saves you money. It is a hassle to lug 24 packs of water home from the store.

  107. Heather G says

    clean water is important to me because i have 3 kids and i want to keep them healthy

  114. Marie says

    We are trying to be healthier so we have cut out all soft drinks in our house. Having clean fresh tasting water is more important then ever.

  115. Laurie says

    I would use for the health benefit of filtered water. I would give this to my daughter who leaves for college in the fall.

  118. MichaelaW says

    I have 2 kids, and it would be nice to feel extra secure in knowing their water is pure

  119. Jani Nelson says

    Having pure, clean water is very important because water is so good for you and if you don’t have good water then you have to buy bottled water and it is expensive and not good for the environment.

  124. Kimberli says

    My husband and I only have 1 working kidney each (I donated one to him the year we got married) so we both drink at least 2 liters of water each day and are trying to instill that good habit into our boys, in case they end up with my husbands (unknown) kidney issue that caused his kidneys to fail. So its super important to my family to have cold, good tasting water available at all times!!

  130. Rebecca Z. says

    Clean water is important to me because I have two young children and want them to be as healthy as possible.

  136. Kate says

  149. Jennifer Mack says

    It is important to my family to have pure clean water because our water comes from a well. It is scary not knowing what is in your water.

  154. Brittney says

    We do as much as we can to stay healthy by only drinking water and eating healthy, natural foods. For as much water as we drink, it is a necessity for it to be pure, for our family’s health and wellbeing.

  155. Tracy says

    Having clean water is important to me because of my location. A public study just showed our Chromium-6 levels are 2nd highest in the nation.

  171. Melissa says

    I want to make sure my family stays healthy and clean water is one of the best ways. We drink bottled right now and go through about 8 a day, this would be a great way to start being a little more eco friendly.

  174. Natasha Dawson says

    I live in the county and our water seems hard. I would love to have purifier because I hate buying plastic bottles of water.

  178. Babs says

    Filtered water is essential for our family of six! We use a TON, so it’s just not economical to buy bottled water. This would be a blessing!

  181. Brandi says

    As long as teh water is pure and clean it is good for your body… I don’t drink as much water as I should…

  185. Lisa Mace says

  205. Brenda Block says

    Trying to be healthy and lose weight, I refuse to pay for bottled water and I agree that tap water tastes bad most of the time. This would help get my water consumption up too!!

  212. Christine N. says

    Clean water is important to our whole family. It is all my teenagers drink & I am so grateful for it. With so many sugary drinks for them to chose from, water is what they want most!

  225. tracie h says

    i have been wanting this item checked my zip code on ther site tbs is 228 epa recommends 0 is which you would get with ZERO

  229. mary says

    I have to have clear water for my children to drink and me. I don’t like all the chemicals and we drink a lot of water around here. 🙂

  236. Jean says

    My kids love the personal stories I write with photobooks. I would definitely go for the photobooks first – even printing extras for our out of town grandparents and great-grandparents!

    • Jean says

      Oops, that is my reply for the Zazzle giveaway! Sorry!

      Pure, clean water is important to me because I care about everything that goes into my family’s bodies. I hate to be a water snob, but I can really taste the difference between tap and non-tap waters!

  238. Angela Gidley says

    Clean water is important to me as we have well water that we have not tested since my daughter was born. This would be helpful to knowing she is getting clean, pure water!

    It is very important and something I think we take for granted! We havea well now and have to be even more concerned!

  249. Michelle says

    Pure clean water is very important to me for my families health. I have read that filtered tap water is much better for you than bottled water (plus its cheaper), win/win!!

  256. Maggie says

    this way, i know what my children are drinking. Especially my youngest one who isn’t a year yet.

  257. Kim F. says

    Clean water is not only refreshing but healthy for the entire family from mom and dad all the way down to the newborn who needs water for their formula.

  261. Lissette says

    I Love pure clean water because I am so picky about how my H2O should taste. Like my water from the faucet contains at times little speckles of something and well I could really use a break from purchasing or having to wait to refill my water gallons from the water dispensers you find near several local stores.

  262. Cortney H says

    I want clean, pure water so I know nothing is in it. My family’s health is important to me. We live in the city with the obvious chemicals in it. Good water is very essential.

  270. Jennifer H says

    It’s important to know what you are putting in your body. It’s the only one you have so it’s best to take care of it well.

  276. Stacie Frost says

    We have well water. I am always so worried to give it to my little guy, so I am constantly buying bottled water. I would love to quit having to purchase so much bottled water and using so much plastic. We recycle, but I know it’s still bad for the environment. Thanks so much for entering me!

  310. Natasha S says

    I dont drink just plain water, and have
    tried all other filters and havent found one
    that I like…So I am now trying to change so
    this will help with my water intake.

  314. Kerry G. says

    My son loves water at bedtime. We’ve about worn our pitcher out. It would be nice to have a larger one & our tap water here is terrible!

  318. Crystal K. says

    It is very important to me because our local water is literally unsafe to drink half of the time. We get letters every other month or so from the city stating that our water wasn’t treated properly *months ago* and they’re letting us know after the fact. Now most of us all rely on bottled water for drinking since it cannot be trusted to be safe at all times!

  322. Lea says

    I have little ones so clean water is important to us. We have a filter in our fridge, but I still wonder at times how much it really gets out of the water. I think that this would be wonderful to try.

  342. Jeni says

    My kids favorite drink is water. They would choose that (and do) over pop or sugary kool-aid any day! Sometimes I can smell the chlorine in the city water that comes from my tap….that cannot be good for my childrens young bodies to be ingesting! This would make it so convenient for them to grab a glass or fill up a sports bottle to drink.

  346. Melissa says

    I need to drink plenty of water because I’m pregnant. Plus I want my toddler to be used to drinking water from an early age.

  401. Katy says

    Clean water is essential to the health of my family. I subscribe to your feed and your facebook.

  402. pat k. says

    Water is so important for our health, and after reading what is in some so called “safe” water, it makes me sick to think that I have been drinking it. I drink nothing but purified water now. The Zero water purifier would save us so much money and the inconvenience of having to buy bottled water and having to haul it home.

  403. Bridget says

    I excercise a lot, so it is important for me to drink lots of water to keep hydrated.

  411. LJ says

    As the mother of a baby and a toddler having pure drinking water is really important to me. We had our well water tested last week and it doesn’t meet EPA guidelines so until we can get a filtration system in place we are drinking bottled water which is not only bad for the environment but really costly and inconvenient. This prize would really help us out.

  417. Pauline says

    Having pure clean water is great for my family because it will limit our bottled water consumption

  425. Austin says

    Having healthy good tasting water is important to me because I want my kids to grow up enjoying water. My wife does not drink water.

I would like to have the whole family drinking water again.

  585. Liz says

    Hey… Zero Water would be a great help to my family because I have a Brita water filter but I’m not too impressed and don’t have the $$$ to buy a new system. Clean water is important to me because I was fortunate enough to grow up with well water… so fresh, so clean, and tastes amazing! I would love to be able to match the quality of the water I grew up with and share it with my family and friends.
    Thanks!!!

  642. Pamela M. says

    The City where I live puts a lot of chemicals in our water, so I have to filter it 2 times to get it clean. Clean water is so very important in every aspect of our lives, and I drink a lot of water but will not buy bottled water due to environmental factors. This product sounds far superior to the options currently available, and I would love to try it out!

  646. ashbrowns says

    Clean water is important to me so that I know nothing unnecessary is going into my family’s bodies.

    because when the water is filtered, it tastes better and it makes me want to drink it more often 🙂 water is the best thing for us, and we all need to be drinking more of it!

    Water is essential for weight loss, and my husband and I are trying really hard to lose weight. Drinking water curbs appetite and flushes toxins and fats out of your body. We drink a lot of water right now, and I want it to be water free of impurities!
