Compared with Gasoline...Think a gallon of gas is expensive?  This makes one think, and also puts things in perspective.
 
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.)
 
 
 
So, the next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on water, Scope, or Whiteout, or God forbid Pepto Bismol or NyQuil.
