I would like the option of creating my own sodas. I rarely drink them, but mango-lime sounds about my speed.
I mostly just add a squirt of lime or lemon, but at .99 to 1.29 a 2-liter bottle, the cost of club soda/fizzy water adds up. I hate drinking plain water, so I need to have something in it.
TBH we use more seltzer now since it's easy and fun so we are not saving money per se but we are avoiding tons of plastic bottles. Do like that we control how carbonated we want the water.
If you go with soda stream Bed Bath & Beyond (along with many other stores) exchanges empty cartridges for refilled ones at 1/2 the cost of new ($15 instead of $30) and they DO accept their ubiquitous $5 off $15 coupons on the exchanges - so sign up for online coupons. FWIW a cartridge lasts 3-4 weeks for us but we are three thirsty folk here in drought & heat country (central Texas) and the teen often has guests.
