I am SO angry. S

I am SO angry. S and I saw the mega-sized Brita my sister has and decided that it would be perfect for us, since we've been buying water since we moved here in July. (I'm a bit picky about water.) So I bought one yesterday, and last night we washed it, cleaned the filter, filled it up and noticed a big crack in the bottom that was leaking water. The plastic on those things is pretty hard; it's not something we could have done in the washing process. So tonight, we went back to the place we purchased it (Target), only this time a different location (since I bought the last one at the other location), and purchased another (the last one on the shelf again). I took it out in the store, made sure that the hard (clear) plastic part wasn't cracked, and we brought it home.

It's fucking cracked. S thought I was joking when I said, "It's fucking cracked!" but I wasn't. This time, it's the white inside part that is cracked--something we couldn't have done either since it was like that when I took it out to wash it. S thinks it might be because of the way Brita ships the things--without any padding to cushion any hard blows during shipping. Either way, I'm pissed off because I don't fucking have time to go to Target every day. And since we keep buying the last one, I now have to go to another fucking Target store and exchange the damn thing.

Here I thought we were doing such a good thing, saving money, and instead we've upped the price of the fucker in gas money. And I'm beginning to think that maybe this is a sign. We're also running out of water, since we didn't buy any this week due to the fact that we planned on the Brita. Grrrrrrr.
