Does anyone know how many fluid ounces make a gallon?

[GoldenEagle]

I am trying to be a a smart shopper. I can get a 24 pack of lemonade for $5.50 or 2 gallons for $4. Which saves me the more for my buck?

[Suicane75]

Are you drunk? In A shopping center? With computer access?

[sabotai]

That depends on how big the bottles or whatever are in the 24 pack...

They are 12 fluid ounces. No I am not drunk, I do not think.

[sabotai]

128 fluid ounces in a gallon

I don't know, but if you're really hungry, you should slice your pizza into six slices instead of four. You'll get two extra pieces that way.

[sabotai]

The 24 pack. With that you get 288 fluid ounces while 2 gallons give you 256 fluid ounces

[GoldenEagle]

Using my math skills I have detemrined that the $5.50 24 pack is the better deal.

[sabotai]

EDIT: I suck at math. :)

[Vegas Vic]

Actually if you want the best deal in terms of fluid ounces to money spent you'd go with the 2 gallon. The 24 pack gets you about 0.52 fluid ounces per cent while the 2 gallon will get you 0.64 fluid ounces per cent spent.

Yeah, but you're discounting the value of those 24 empty bottles. You can do a lot of things with that.

I'd buy the two gallons for four bucks because it's probably name-brand lemonade.

And it's all about representing the best lemonade when you're in the hood.

Don't fizzle with my lemonizzle.

[sovereignstar]

Damn it! Now I've just bought the cheaper stuff. I've lost all street cred...

Yes, like refill them with lemonade, in which case you would get 1.4 ounces per cent, a much better bargain.

[Easy Mac]

google is good for conversions. just type in fluid ounces in a gallon.

[MrBug708]

Geez, I hope i never hafta wonder if I'm saving 5 cents on lemonade. I'll let the wifey do that

[BigJohn&TheLions]

Make sure you get lemonade that is sweetened with sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup...

I think you're really looking for help with your word problems in Algrebra I GED class.

Is this an enigma puzzle?

Nope. I will never have any chance in hell at winning one of those things.

The comedy value of this thread is very high, most notably the unintended.

1.91 cents per ounce

2 gallons = 256 ounces @ $4.00
1.56 cents per ounce

Now Vegas Vic has a point, if 24 empty 12 ounce containers has some value to you, we may need to look closer. Are both containers plastic? Are the resealable and reusable? machine washable? recyclable? redeemable?

[Tigercat]

When all else fails think like a caveman. Its what got you evolved to this point isnt it? Now, do you want a bunch of wussysized portions of refreshment, or do you want two mansized portions of refreshment? Oh wait, you are pricing lemonade. Go get yourself clubbed by a real man then who can decide for you.

A gallon is 160 fluid ounces in Britain, yo. That's because the Imperial pint is 20 fluid ounces versus the 16 fluid ounce American pint.

[QuikSand]

Isn't Mississippi still part of the British Empire? The sun never sets, you know...

[Huckleberry]

Sadly, it seems that the British have bigger pints than we.

But our teeth are better. On the whole, I mean. Can't say for sure about Mississippi.

I think I would rather have a pair of big jugs to play with.

With google (and the rest of the internet) at your disposal to look this up on your own in about 5 seasonds, you instead decide to post the question to the forum and wait around for someone to bring the answer?

Do you have someone to type up your posts and read them to you also? :)

24 pack = 288 ounces @ $5.50
1.91 cents per ounce

2 gallons = 256 ounces @ $4.00
1.56 cents per ounce




Also take into account the 5 cents per bottle surcharge on recyclables, thats another $1.20 which brings the 24 pack up to 6.70 or 2.33 cents per ounce

far cheaper to buy the 2 gallons.

That very much varies by state though.

[RendeR]

yer right, there are what? a dozen states that add the surcharge, and only one of those is 10 cents instead of 5, so if yer from michigan add another 1.20 to it, if your state doesn't add 5 cents a bottle for recycling, then ignore my post.




damn nit pickers ;)
