Putting it into perspective....

Binuven · 07-09-2005

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.)

So, the next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on water, Scope, or Whiteout, or, God forbid, Pepto Bismal or Nyquil. Just a little humor to help ease the pain of your next trip to the pump...

Evian is melted snow from the Swiss Alps filtered through sand and clay left over from the glaciers, bottled in the French town of... Evian les Bains.

Inkjet printer ink runs between $3,000-$8,000 a gallon. Be happy your car doesn't run on light cyan.
