Got Milked? Milk Costs More Than Gass
(via www.thedailygreen.com)
If you’ve been to the supermarket lately, it’s hard not to notice that the cost of milk per gallon is quickly surpassing the cost of a gallon of gas. In the past few months, the price of a gallon of milk has gone up 50 to 60 cents in cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago and New Orleans with consumers paying close to $4 a gallon.
