Flat water - a good thing

If you love your portable water bottle, but find it sometimes takes up too much space in your purse or satchel, you’ll want to know about the Vapur Anti-Bottle. (Sorry, I tried to get a picture, but geting info and images from the PR company was a bit like pulling teeth! Check out their website to see what it looks like.)  This reusable bottle is flexible, so while it stands upright when full, it can be rolled, folded or flattened when empty. Selling for about $13, it holds 16 ounces, and is freezer- and dishwasher-safe. It’s also BPA-free. The Vapur has other environmental pluses; made using wind power, it comes in packaging made from recycled paperboard printed with soy ink. And it ships flat, which means fewer trucks on the road, lower fuel consumption and reduced carbon emissions. Get more information online or look for it at Toronto-area stores, including Bergo, Neat, Rolo, Swipe Books , and Mercantile. Full disclosure: I did call a  few of these stores to check on availability. It seems like stock is dwindling, so if you want to buy a Vapur locally, better get one fast!
