Why does nobody talk about how much water you waste with daily rose changes?

I saw a video from a florist in Seattle who only changes vase water every three days, and my roses started lasting a full week longer, so has anyone else cut back on water changes with good results?

Yeah, I only change mine once a week now.

Whoa, that seems way too long to me... I change mine every couple days, no question. It just starts to feel gross after a while, you know? Letting it go a whole week would drive me nuts. I guess we all have our own limits for that stuff.

My coworker Mike tried going a whole 10 days once just to see if he could do it. By day 7 his girlfriend wouldn't come near him and his cat started avoiding his pillow. He said the worst part was when he finally changed it and realized he'd gotten used to the smell. He's back to every 3 days now and says he learned his lesson.
