Guest guest Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Real tongue in cheek calculations Meena Ma'am.............and that is so true............. its like the shopping festivals here ..............in Dubai the malls put some of the products on ridiculously low price............and when you walk in for your other groceries they literally ask you for the moon......... Was naive once now have become a smart shopper............buying and stocking things when they are down...........and relishing every moment when the prices shoot-up.............I guess I can give warren buffet a run now.........lol.......... regards aasawari91 taking a stock of her store............... ________________________________ To: mgims <mgims >; harry Sent: Sunday, 26 August 2012 4:02 AM Subject: petrol is not that expensive   I thought petrol 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! Price base - Bombay (or Mumbai) Diesel (regular) : Rs. 42.08 per litre Petrol (regular unleaded) : Rs. 79.51 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.660 for a litre of WATER?! And the buyers don't even know the source (Evian spelled backwards is Naive.)] Kores white-out 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 desk-jet colour ink cartridge 21 ml Rs.1900 = Rs. 90476 per litre!!! Now you know why computer printers are so cheap? So they have you hooked for the ink! The next time you're at the pump, don't curse our Petroleum minister – just be glad your car doesn't run on cough syrup, after shave, coffee, Pantene conditioner or God forbid, printer ink!  Regards,  Madhulila / Meena  Krsna is the Source of All Pleasures.....

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Well, I buy 1 ml of Semen for IUI for Rs 3000. That works to a staggering Rs 30,00,000 or 30 lakhs per litre. Thank God my car is not testosterone powered. Kishore Shah 1974 PS: Yes! I had seen this forward the last time petrol prices had increased.
