I sometimes wish I could run my car on water now that the price of gas is so high. But it turns out that water might be more expensive than gas! I read the following list in an e-zine and it caught my attention. It provides a calculation of the price per gallon for a variety of substances. I must say that I have not done any research into confirmation of these listed prices. Have a look.
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
Evian water 9 oz @ $1.49 = $21.19 per gallon (and consumers don't even know the source of this water)
The cost of printers’ ink (as in book printing) is $5,200 a gallon
Aren’t you glad your car doesn't run on Evian, Scope, Pepto Bismol, Nyquil or (worst of all) printer’s ink?!

I'm looking for the generic white distilled vinegar technology. Bring it!
