    yes, but, again, I did a lot of rounding.

    so it's not the proper answer. it's just close to the proper answer.

    Found the dimensions of one of this kind of pool (approximate, because it's not a cylinder, but, I'm feeling lazy, here's where the rounding comes in)

    radius*pi (3.14, just used that, rounding, lazy)^2*height

    I get the volume ( I did it in inches, so I had to convert cubic inches into cubic feet, than I converted it into gallons, which involved more rounding, because I figured it was not the right shape anyway, so, whatever)

    googled ky jelly

    first price I saw was 2.5 oz for 7.49 at walgreens

    128 (oz in a gallon) divided by 2.5 * 7.50 (lazy, wanted a round number)*number of gallons from previous calculations

    answer.

    $200? Jesus Christ, I'm glad I don't live wherever you pay your water bill.

    Realy, if you have the measurements and cost of a "standard sammich" or something that we can agree is a "standard sammich" (I'll take your word for it) I'll do the math.

    oops my mafff was wrong..:p I did it for 33000 gallons which is $200.00

    3110 is around $20.00/ With the new rates its more like $65.00. You can claim pool and not pay sewage.

    Well let's see...a standard ham & cheese sammich would cost about a dollar if I make it myself and would be about 1 cup if I squished it to fit.

    So 4 sammiches to a quart.

    Go!
