Can "taking a bath" is free for you...???

I bathe everyday here, even though water isnt free here in Mexico.

If I give an answer quickly then my answer will be ‘yes’ the bath is free for me. But on considering other things like we are paying for water, soap, shampoo etc then bath is not free at all. The truth is we never felt that a bath is costly for us. It is one of the daily routine and must do it whether it is costly or free.

Water is not free if you have to pay for it, which most people in houses and some people in apartments do. Then, you have to heat the water by paying for electricity, etc.

Water that is piped to locations is not free. The water companies have to purify the water and that cost money.

Here in our country especially in metro cities- the water bill is quite high. Plus the heater that needs electricity - that means another charge. That could be the reason why some people say taking a bath is expensive. You are lucky if you are not paying for water bills.

hahaha yes, everything is free for me, including the shampoo, the soap, the hair conditioner, and would you believe even the lotion. My sisters and nieces gave me tons (no not tons .. exaggerated, very generous amount) of lotion, bath soap and shower gels, shampoo and conditioner back here in Thailand. I didn't know if I looked haggard when I went home last Holidays but they gave me all of these. Water is not free by the way unless you will take a bath near the river, waterfalls, or lake. if it is processed then it has to be paid. but my water is very cheap.

Yes I take bath freely in the bathroom. But I have to pay tax to municipal authority for using supply water.

Water isn't free. In fact, I just went today and paid my water bill for the last month. I won't go to the extent of saying that water is expensive, but it does have a cost that is associated with it for the pipelines and for the purification, etc. However, with that said, I think that the cost of the water, the gas to heat the water and the cost of soaps and shampoos, bathing is something that is very reasonably priced.

No it's not free for we have to pay for the water bill and everything that we used in taking a bath but total cost for a single bath could not be considered expensive here in our place.

hi, for me taking a bath is not free because we need to spend money for the shampoos and soap to our body but this expenses is also for our body to be more clean,it will be free only if we will not use any soaps or even shampoos to our body and if we will use the water of river.

OF course we have to pay water bill and electricity that is used to heat the water. Apart from that soap, shampoos are not free at all. But this thus not dither us from having a bath daily. During summer we have to take bath twice a day. It's not that expensive that we can't take bath daily.

Good for you because you do not need for electricity bill in your country.How I wish the same in my country. Technically taking a bath is not free as we have to use water,shampoo,conditioner,soap,body scrub etc.I need to buy those to be able to take a bath properly.My shampoo costs about 12 USD,Soap about less than a dollar,body scrub more likely 10 USD and of course I have to pay for the water bill.

Wow I never heard that bathing at other countries is paid (unless it's on a Sauna) Here in my country, as long as you have your own water connection and own bathroom then you can bath all you can! Even rivers,streams,bays,springs and falls are free for bathing here in our place. Swimming pools are paid but I heard at some cities here pools are free.

Hello Tushavi! wow well how lucky for you that you get to take baths a lot and not have to worry about water. Here, in Australia, we have to pay for water. I love baths to relax but I don't have them often to save water and so my dad doesn't have to pay a big water bill. Even though I help out with the bills, I still don't have so much.

Dear Tushavi, I see you are a very young man. Perhaps you live with your parents, perhaps in a student residence and your parents pay the fees. Taking a bath is never free, no matter where you live. At least not if you take a bath in a house or apartment. The city has to maintain the water lines, bring them into the houses and apartments. People pay property taxes and in all Werstern countries houses and apartments have water meters, that measures how much water you use. You pay your water bill and your electric bill because you want to take a warm or hot bath which uses electricity. Now if you are in residence at university or rent a room somewhere you pay rent and part of that calculation includes an estimate of how much water and electricity the person is likely to use. The only free water that I can see is if you jump into a river and take a bath there. Even that is not totally free because adjacent land holders pay taxes to keep the rivers clean and safe.

I lived in different countries and nowhere was the water free or the electricity. I wish it was. I think that water is not free because of few things. First, it costs to bring the water through the pipes into the houses so everyone can use it whenever they want and for whatever purpose they want. Just think about the times women had to pull water from a well situated at pretty large distance from the house.Long walk, hard work and carry a lot for what was enough lots of time for only one day. In our modern times, we just turn on and off a tap and miracle!water is is at our fingertips whenever we want it.There are places that rent rooms or apartments that have the water price included with the rent and this is called "free water".But in truth, this is not free because you still pay for it, it's only masqued under the rent fee. Second thing that water is not free is because we try to use less water. Not to consume too much as we polluate our environment with all kind of chemicals that we use when we clean or wash our bodies, the house, the car, and so on. However the sopa and shampoo are not really expensive. There are all the times all kind of sales where you can lower their prices quite a bit.

Here in kerala most of the houses are pet us with their own ground water. So people in my locality don't find any scarcity and we people don't need to pay for it. The only thing we people see is money for buying a soap and a cloth to weep water from our body.

Not free at all. We have to pay for the water, at least in Hungary. The hot water is pretty darn expensive here.

We pay for the water here, usually its about $400 a month on water alone.

The water bill, has to be paid, light bill, gas bill, sewage bill, all these things has to be paid, every month so no, the water here in not free.
