Default new "green" muriatic acid

One would think that as the concentration gets lower the price would
go down. Nope. Price hasn't changed. The water they use to dilute it
must be pretty pricey stuff! In a few months they'll be selling
vinegar for $7/gallon.


You're paying for packaging and shipping. They throw in the acid for nothing.


Yeah, right. That's why I can now get vinegar for $2/gallon. But,
yeah, maybe the muriatic acid comes from Nepal or something.


Gasoline costs $3.50/gallon and Perrier is something like $6.


Geez, that's right. That's why Perrier is so expensive. Because they
dilute it with that same pricey water! Hard to dilute gasoline with
water. That's why it's so cheap by comparison.
