SO YOU THINK GAS IS EXPENSIVE?

By
Real Estate Agent with Century 21 Olde Tyme

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 , 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!!

Uhmmmm not me. I'm not that smart and I don't know if I want to know how many tax's there are on a gallon of gas.  I would hate to water down my gas with my tears while I'm pumping. :)  Thanks for the comments and for stopping by and if anyone wants to take on Jay's challenge let me know. :)

Cowboy,

That's the way to travel, by the way for all of you that don't know Norco that was the last big horse ride here before they developed the hills.  Thanks for the photo Cowboy!  See you at the office this week. :)
