The Astonishing Cost Of Consumer Liquids Anonymous 4-18-8
This makes one think, and also puts things into 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 a REAL KICKER... * Evian water, 9 oz, $1.49 .. $21.19 per gallon! That's $21.19 for a gallon of WATER!! And buyers don't even know the source (Evian spelled backwards is Naive.) LAST, (but not least): Ever wonder why computer printers are so cheap? So they can rip you off for the ink refill cartridges!!? Someone calculated the cost of a gallon of ink in all those refills at. $5,200 a gallon . That's right...$5,200 A GALLON. So, the next time you're at a fuel pump, be glad your car doesn't run on water, Scope, Whiteout, Pepto Bismol, Nyquil or, (God forbid), Printer Ink.
