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 so its Rs. 660 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 100 ml Rs. 50 = Rs. 500 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. 90476 per litre!!!


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


So, the next time We are at the pumping station, lets not curse anyone – but just be glad our cars doesn't run on cough syrup, after shave, coffee, or God forbid, printer ink !!!


Thats wat we call optimistic thinking don’t we….??
