The price of Gas

All these examples do NOT imply that gasoline is cheap; they just illustrate how outrageous some prices are....

You will be really shocked by the last one! (At least, I was...)

Compared with Gasoline......
Think a gallon of gas is expensive?


This makes one think, and also puts things in perspective.

Diet Snapple 16 oz $1.29 .... $10.32 per gallon
Lipton Ice Tea 16 oz $1.19 ....$9.52 per gallon
Gatorade 20 oz $1.59 ..... $10.17 per gallon
Ocean Spray 16 oz $1.25 ......... $10.00 per gallon
Brake Fluid 12 oz $3.15 ........ $33.60 per gallon
Vick's Nyquil 6 oz $8.35 .... $178.13 per gallon
Pepto Bismol 4 oz $3.85 .... $123.20 per gallon
Whiteout 7 oz $1.39 ....... . $25.42 per gallon
< B>
Scope 1.5 oz $0.99 .$84.48 per gallon

And this is the REAL KICKER..

Evian water 9 oz $1.49.........$21.19 per gallon! ! $ 21.19 for WATER and the buyers don't even know the source.

(Evian spelled backwards is Naive.)


Ever wonder why printers are so cheap?

So they have you hooked for the ink.
Someone calculated the cost of the ink at................
(you won't believe it....but it is true........)
$5,200 a gal. (five thousand two hundred dollars)


So, the next time you're ! at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on water, Scope, or Whiteout, Pepto Bismol, Nyquil or God forbid, Printer Ink!
