Title: You think Gas is Expensive?
Post by: Canadian_Family on June 30, 2008, 07:41:53 PM

Hello All,

Gas/Petrol is selling at $1.34/litre in Canada, Everyone is complaining about the high price of gasoline, yet few people complain about the high price of some other liquids that they consume on a regular basis.

For example, look at these prices:
 
Iced tea          475 ml @ $1.19       = $2.51 /litre
Sports drink      590 ml @ $1.59       = $2.70 /litre
Bottled water  :mad      265 ml @ $1.49       = $5.62 /litre (for water!!!)
Travel-size mouthwash    45 ml @ $0.99       = $22.00 /litre
Liquid antacid       120 ml @ $3.89       = $32.41 /litre
Cold remedy      175 ml @ $8.29       = $47.37 /litre

But all this is nothing compared to the all-time champ:

Printer ink cartridge       50 ml @ $49.99       = $1,000 /litre

And you thought gas was expensive!
