Thought you might think this was funny!
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?
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
(BTW... Evian spell ed 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. (YES, 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...
And - If you don't pass this along to at least one person, your muffler
will fall off!!
Okay, your muffler won't really fall off... but, you might run out of
toilet paper
