Gas Price At The Pump

Let's find some humor in all this nonsense ...



The price of gasoline versus that of printer ink .... ?



All these examples do not claim the fuel is cheap, only to show the extravagance of some prices ....



You might be shocked by the last item, compared to gasoline ...





You think gasoline is expensive?



This makes you think and puts things into perspective with our purchases ...



Lipton Iced Tea 16 oz $ 1.19 ..........$ 9.52 (per gallon)



Gatorade 20 oz $ 1.59 .... $ 10.17 (per gallon)



Ocean Spray 16 oz $ 125 ......... $ 10.00 (per gallon)



Vick's Nyquil 6 oz ... $ 8.35 $ 178.13 (per gallon)



Pepto Bismol 4 oz $ 3.85 .. $ 123.20 (per gallon)



Scope 1.5 oz $ 0.99 ....$ No. 84.48 (per gallon)





And here's a surprise ...



Evian water 9 oz $ 1.49, $ 21.49 per gallon? $ 21.49 for water? ... And the buyer does not even know the source ...



(Evian spelled backwards is NAIVE)



Did you ever wonder why printers are so cheap?



To get addicted ink cartridges ...



Someone did the math the price of this ink ... It will seem incredible but it's true ...



$ 5,200.00 per gallon ...



So next time you're at the gas station be happy that your vehicle is not in Evian water, Scope, Nyquil or ink printer ...





It's just a little humor to help you support your next stop at the gas pump ... <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... oflmao.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rotflmao:' />

Anybody remember back in the late 90's when gas was 0.50 cents a liter?

Well to remember the old days,, I surelly remember 45 cents a gallon, mid of 70s and around 55cents a gallon in the early to mid 80s. Price was much higher in Germany while I was on tour over there, price of benzin was already around 70cents a litre in mid 80s, Diesel was much cheaper, around 35cents.But those days are long gone..<img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... #>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />
