The price of Gas versus Printer Ink

All these examples do NOT imply that gasoline is cheap; it just illustrates how outrageous some prices are compared with Gasoline......


Think a gallon of gas is expensive???

▫ 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 $1.49..$21.19 per gallon! $21.19 for WATER and the buyers don't even know the source (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...
