XCR1250 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 YOU THINK GASOLINE IS EXPENSIVE? Look at it this way ... do you ever wonder if the glass full of ice is made from purified water? ... you know, the ice that melts into your soda or other drink you've paid a premium to buy outside your home. WOW, certainly gives you a new perspective on the price of GASOLINE! Subject: YOU THINK GASOLINE IS EXPENSIVE? VERY INTERESTING !!!!!!!! This is priceless!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)!!! Think a gallon of gas is expensive? This makes one think, and also puts things into perspective. Diet Snapple, 16 oz , $1.29 ... $10.32 per gallon! Starbuck's Reg. Coffee 16 oz, $2.10... $16.80 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 a gallon of WATER!! and the buyers don't even know the source!!(Evian spelled backwards is Naive.) Ever wonder why computer printers are so cheap? So they can hook you for the ink. Someone calculated the cost of the ink; you won't believe it but it's true: $5,200 a gal. $5,200 A GALLON!!! So, the next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on water, Scope, Whiteout, Pepto Bismol, NyQuil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
