$6 per gallon of milk? Last time I paid $3.12.

They missed off printer ink. That's really expensive stuff.

What it really shows is how much people are screwed for soda.

I was thinking it was tongue-in-cheek. Apparently not- these folks need shopping coaches.

$3 gallon here for milk. A food grade, prepackaged, temperature controlled, time-sensitive commodity.

It looks like they are buying small cartons of milk and not the gallon jugs?

Apparently coffee is about to go through the roof.
I care about that a lot more than gas.

LOL at the nail polish! $1000 a gallon!

And milk is usually under $3 here.

Sign me up for the gallon latte. I would either be really productive or I would be moving so fast nobody would be able to say otherwise.

Seems some here missed the point. I only paid $3.54 for gas not $3.96.

The graphic says the source of the information is Peapod.com and Casey's pub Los Angeles. So maybe milk delivered to your house somewhere in Los Angeles could very well be that high.

Yes, printer ink. One of responses to this article states this to be "~$8000/gal".
