Gas price comparisons

[1962savoy]

Just though I'd light up your day by posting these cpmparisons:

The price of Gas versus Printer Ink

All these examples do NOT imply that gasoline is cheap; it just illustrates 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


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!
Just a little humor to help ease the pain of your next trip to the pump...:eusa_boohoo:

Hell yeah I'm game I'm sick of these dirtbags jacking prices becouse the wind blows. Maybe Barry Obama will change his stance on domestic drilling like he did on gitmo.

Yep, it's the Shick/Gillette business model. Give away the razor then rip 'em off on the blades. Why are those things so expensive?

Gas really is cheap by comparison, it's the economy of scale.

No one's buying 21 gallons of Epson light magenta three times a week!!!
