Next to air, water is your highest priority. Everyone should have at least 2 water filters. Two is one, one is none. These are not cheap, but they are inexpensive. There are knock offs out there that cost less, but these are the only "straw" filters that remove so many bacteria and protozoa and can filter 1000 liters of water. That works out to $.02. How can you afford not to have a couple of these?
