Gasoline – Cheap at $4.00 per gallon
By Brian | May 11, 2008 | Share on Facebook
My Uncle Walter, now retired in Florida, sends me about 50 Internet jokes a month (kinda makes you remember 1997, no?) Anyway, this one was the first in a very long time to actually make me smile. Not so much a joke, just a little perspective:
Item | Current Cost per Gallon |
Gasoline | $4.00 |
Lipton Iced Tea | $9.52 |
Ocean Spray | $10.00 |
Gatorade | $10.17 |
Diet Snapple | $10.32 |
Water | $21.19 |
Whiteout | $25.42 |
Brake Fluid | $33.60 |
Scope Mouthwash | $84.48 |
Pepto Bismol | $123.20 |
NyQuil | $178.13 |
Printer Ink | $5,200 |
Let’s hope the first alternative fuel car doesn’t run on printer ink, huh?

Or, for a different perspective, should we just look back at http://www.familygreenberg.com/2006/11/local-economic-indicators.html ?
I guess the real question is: why do you want to minimize the importance of the gasoline prices?
Nice job quoting me back to me, though! That’s a first, I believe (unless Porten beat you to it…)
