$3.60 a gallon

So I thought the title would get attention just because people would be interested thinking I was selling something. Sorry to fool you but here is a story. I was driving down the street today and saw a neighbor of mine was selling stuff at the curb. I wasn't going to stop but as I drove by noticed a tank and decided to stop. I got up tot the tank and realized it was a 90g RR tank looked brand new. It is drilled at the bottom and in perfect shape.
Any way to get to it there was no price on it so I asked. "Make me an offer" he says. I think for a second and he says again how about $20 for the tank I just need to unload it. With out thinking I wipe out a $20 and hand it to him. Holly cow I cant believe I just got a 90gal RR tank for $20 . NO THIS IS NOT A JOKE $20 SO THE TITLE SAYS IT ALL 3.60 A GAL.

Even if you need to reseal the tank, thats still one heck of a deal!

BTW, Don't you mean 22 cents per gallon?
