Amelia Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Comparing the Price of Gasoline You Think A Gallon Of Gas Is Expensive? Put things in perspective… Price of Gas: 81.3 cents/Litre= $3.69/gallon 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 Evian water 9 oz for $1.49 $21.19 per gallon. $21.19 FOR WATER! (… and buyers don't even know the source…) So guys, the next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on water, Scope, or Whiteout, or worse yet, PEPTO BISMOL or NYQUIL!!!

aldona Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 You folks are complaining about paying 81.3 cents per litre??? Our gas hasn't been that low for about 5-6 years! We're looking at $1.45/litre and rising. Other fluids... White Truffle Oil from www.gmushrooms.com: 250ml (8.4 fl oz) for $26.00. That's $104.00 per litre. From Langton's Wine Auctions: Chateau Palmier Margaux 2002 vintage, 750ml bottle for $2275 = $3033 per litre From WineSearcher.com: Penfolds Grange Hermitage 1951 vintage - 26 fl.oz. for $65,000 (Australian dollars). I'm not even going to start to work that one out per litre/gallon, it's too early in the morning. aldona Quote www.asrc.org.au (Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, Melbourne)Helping over 2000 refugees & asylum seekers each monthIMSLP/Petrucci Music LibraryThe Public Domain Music Score Library - Free Sheet Music DownloadsLooking for classical sheet music?

cricket Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 At that rate, I would have had to pay approximately US$75 to go to Pathfinder Leadership Weekend. Yipes! That's more than the cost of the food, the lodging and the utilities we'd used! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
