You Think A Gallon Of Gas Is Expensive?

Gas is Expensive , (Depends compared to what!!!!)

I Think These Things are way out of line also----how ever---Price/ demand .



You Think A Gallon Of Gas Is Expensive?



Makes one think, and 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 for $1.49 --

$21.19 per gallon $21.19 FOR WATER! ....

and the buyers don't even know the source.

So, the next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run

on water, Scope, or Whiteout, or God forbid, PEPTO BISMOL or

NYQUIL!!!!



Just a little humor to help ease the pain of your next trip to the gas pumps
