Why is it that the same people that are happy to pay $3.80 for 700mls of bottled water complain about $1.50 for a litre of petrol?
well our bottled water is $0.70 for 1.5ltr and petrol is $1.64ltr so I don't know what the hell you're talking about
Price of petrol dropped about 10c to 15c per litre as soon as the carbon tax was introduced. If the carbon tax is raised petrol will become even cheaper.
My hotel last night had $3.80 bottles of water right, in the kitchen, next to the tap.
If they've sold one I have no hope for the human race.
...imagine if it were beer.
$1.80/ltr for fuel and only $1/ltr for drinkable water around here.
I would prefer your scenario fingerbone as my car always drinks more than me.
Fark you city types bitch about fuel prices
come to the bush where fuel is still better than 1.40 a litre
At least we cannot see what we are breathing
but you lot can.
I came back from Margarita/Venzuela a few weeks ago.
There, you could fill your petrol tank for 2 and a half Bolivars, which is about (I think) 32 cents - for a whole tank full!
On the other hand, the pipeline from the mainland for fresh water is supposedly leaking/poor quality so they recommend that you don't drink the tap water. I think the cost of a bottle of water was around 12 Bolivars, so maybe $1.50?
I think I prefer paying more for petrol and being able to drink tap water.
so maybe solution is cheap , good, filtered (if somebody want) tap water
and electric vehicle at garage , solar panels on the home roof ?
At the rate electric companies pay you for electricity 8 cents for KWh is better to feed electric car then sell to the grid.
