I wouldn't worry about it. Buy as much as you can. Every time you go to a store --- for whatever reason whatsoever --- make it a thing where you never leave without purchasing 1 or 2 gallon jugs of water.

. . . which produced these results.
Evidently sterile water bottled in an inert container has no real expiration date, and the only thing a user would notice is a flat taste, which can be reduced by aerating the water before drinking.
You might try that "Google" thingie for yourself. They say its going to be real popular some day.
Oh really Mister AMP?!? I drank some untreated creek water once in Texas. Sure coulda used some Kaopectate or Peptol. I was one sick puppy when I got back to the base but the doc gave me some tiny little white pills and they put my insides back on an even keel.wtf? bottled water? why would you need that, that's why our ancestors put water in pipes! and before that, they got water from streams, lakes, springs, rivers, etc.

Never EVER drink untreated water. You do so at your own risk.
Hay there Brutus I got me a 1944 GI SS canteen with a big old dent near the top. After near drowning in a small boat in some salt water I threw a couple bouillon cubes in that canteen, hung it over a codroaster and while we dried our clothes we took sips of hot broth to keep the HYPOTHERMIA BLUES AWAY. It's also the safest place to keep moonshine (if'n you got some.I've got a 1943 GI stainless steel canteen
hung on my bob.
