By the Gallon

[COLOR=red]A side effect of the recent tragedies are the sky rocketing gas prices. A minor inconvenience for those of us that still have a home, still have our “normal” way of life and still have our lives. To help keep some humorous sanity in the recent situation, here’s a funny look at comparing some normal commodities if we were to buy them by the gallon.
1. Diet Snapple 16 oz for $1.29 = $10.32 per gallon
2. Lipton Ice Tea 16 oz for $1.19 = $9.52 per gallon
3. Gatorade 20 oz for $1.59 = $10.17 per gallon
4. Ocean Spray 16 oz for $1.25 = $10.00 per gallon
5. Quart of Milk 16 oz for $1.59 = $6.32 per gallon
6. Evian (water) 9 oz for $1.49 = $21.19 per gallon
7. STP Brake Fluid 12 oz for $3.15 = $33.60 per gallon
8. Vicks Nyquil 6 oz for $8.35 = $178.13 per gallon
9. Pepto Bismol 4 oz for $3.85 = $123.20 per gallon
10. Whiteout 7 oz for $1.39 = $254.17 per gallon
11. Scope 1.5 oz for $0.99 = $84.84 per gallon
So next time you’re at the pump, you can at least be glad your car doesn’t run on Nyquil, Scope or Whiteout! [/COLOR]:)
