HI,
Worried about Petrol price,its still dird cheap? Don't
believe, then read this --------------------?

\"A mail recd from a friend of mine is quite
interesting and worth sharing with others\".


Cost of Fuel gone up? Don't feel so bad!

Over the weekend, I filled up my car's fuel tank, and
I thought fuel has become really expensive after the
recent price hike.

But then I compared it with other common liquids and
did some quick calculations, and I felt a little
better.

To know why, see the results below � you'll be
surprised at how outrageous some other prices are !


*Diesel (regular) in Mumbai : Rs.36.08 per litre

Petrol (speed) in Mumbai : Rs.52 per litre

*Coca Cola 330 ml can : Rs.20 = Rs.61 per litre

Dettol antiseptic 100 ml Rs.20 = Rs.200 per litre

Radiator coolant 500 ml Rs.160 = Rs.320 per litre

Pantene conditioner 400 ml Rs.165 = Rs.413 per litre

Medicinal mouthwash like Listerine 100 ml Rs.45 = Rs.
450 per litre

Red Bull 150 ml can : Rs.75 = Rs.500 per litre

Corex cough syrup 100 ml Rs.57 = Rs. 570 per litre

Evian water 500 ml Rs. 330 = Rs. 660 per litre
Rs. 500 for a litre of WATER???!!! And the buyers
don't even know the source (Evian spelled backwards is
Naive.)

Kores whiteout 15 ml Rs. 15 = Rs. 1000 per litre

Cup of coffee at any decent business hotel 150 ml Rs.
175 = Rs. 1167 per litre

Old Spice after shave lotion 100 ml Rs. 175 = Rs. 1750
per litre

Pure almond oil 25 ml Rs. 68 = Rs. 2720 per litre

And this is the REAL KICKER...
HP deskjet colour ink cartridge 21 ml Rs.1900 = Rs.
90,476 per litre!!!

Now you know why computer printers are so cheap ? So
they have you hooked for the ink !

So, the next time you're at the pump, don't curse our
honorable Petroleum Minister � just be glad your car
doesn't run on cough syrup, after shave, coffee, or
God forbid, printer ink !


And for all you Scotch drinkers...................
the comparison can not be made.

So relax and every time U visit Gas Station,remember
this and feel HAPPY.

Only problem is that you can't pour those other liquids into your car/motorcycle tank (except Kerosene :D which is used by taxis and autos )
