Forget the price of petrol,
check the jar of revitalising cream on your partner's side of the bathroom.
mine cost $68 for 15milligrams - or about $4533 a litre.
BTW
and i have to say it works................... :rolleyes:

Last time I bought perfume for my wife, when they gave me the price, my reaction was "is that for a litre???"
The saleslady just looked at me strangely.... :confused:

i read 11 papers [quickly] on the net each day :rolleyes:
i sent this to some people also
""Here's a job for the multi-skilled,
Macquarie Park Cemetery, due to establish a crematorium, is seeking "an enthusiastic, flexible, self-motivated and organised individual for the dual rotational role of cremator operator and gardener". Experience with a shovel would appear to be an advantage."""
got some great replies like this ;)
Ashes to ashes

Well I'll never complain about Aussie petrol prices, when I was filling the car up in England for just over $5/litre.
Over a dollar is nothing. :cool:

yeah, we are pretty well off really. I was in Norway recently and it really makes you wince when it costs $200 to fill the tank. :shock: And they are amongst the top 4 or 5 oil producers in the world :eyes:
As for the sheila's stuff - it'd probably be a bit cheaper exept that they make it out of easily obtained stuff like newt's livers, and queen bee's mammaries, and use unobtainium as a base gel ...:lol: And of course the packaging...don't start me! I reckon the packaging is at least a third of the cost, and of course a pretty packet makes all the difference to its efficacy...Plus of course whenever you spend $75 on jar of this bee's ejaculate, you also get $180 worth of free other stuff to go with it. It's just a knock-out deal....
Geez they are a different mob aren't they...:hide:

Seldo - That post has to be in the running for the funniest post ever made...
Ey guys long time no see, havent been round a while.
When i worked for an employment agency i went to a company who made that moisturiser shtuff (among other things), we literally mixed that stuff in a 1000litre vat, pouring in bags of chemicals n liquids, etc... then heating it up and squirting it into tiny containers that you see in shops for like $80. Most ingredients were common chemicals.
Most of the time we had thousands of bottles of one brand that we were filling from the vat, then switched to another bottle with another brand, and continued filling. Its mostly the same stuff.

Very true, and back in the 2000 UK fuel price protests when farmers and truckies blockaded the oil refineries stopping fuel getting delivered to servos, the country basically ran out for about a week because people had been panic-buying. I can remember it being on the news about some servo in London charging £12.95/ litre! At the time that was about $30 :eek:
