I’m curious, what’s an item, tool, or purchase you own that you feel has completely justified its cost over time? Could be anything from a gadget to a piece of furniture or even software. What made it worth it for you?

When you say "I close city water', sounds like you are also drinking that water? Sounds like a cool idea that I too have been thinking about. That water needs disinfection though

I'm not a native speaker. I just mean I use the city water supply when it's not raining season, and when it starts raining (about half of the year here) I stop using (and paying for) it and use only rainwater. As I wrote in another comment here, my city has a lot of natural springs and I get water for drinking there.
