Hello My Friends,
I was just complaining to some Friends that at the rate Gasoline was going up, pretty soon most of us will be walking. One of my Smarter Friends pointed out the following to me...
The Price Of Gas Versus Printer Ink
This page is NOT made to imply that gasoline is cheap; it just illustrates how outrageously priced, all things have become....
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 the REAL KICKER is ....
Evian water 9 oz $1.49..$21.19 per gallon! $21.19 for WATER and the buyers don't even know the source
(By The Way - 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...
Have A Wonderful Day & Keep Smiling While It's Still Free,
Phil
