I've seen no shortage of people reselling water bottles with water in them (common especially in places with lots of tourists) but just selling the fucking bottles?

It's such a comical lie, it's almost insulting how bad it is

If you live in a state with a bottle deposit. The $0.05-0.10 is paid with the government aid, but returned as cash to the redeemer. It's a poor and laborious return on investment, but doesn't require actually hustling to sell water like that to tourists.
