Think the $140 price tag on a barrel of oil is pricey? Not compared to a barrel of Perrier (well, if it came in a barrel), which packs a $300 price tag. Your morning Starbucks latte? That checks in at a whopping $957 a barrel, making oil look like the cheap office sludge.

While sure there are all sorts of reasons that these comparison aren't quite perfect (Perrier doesn't come in barrels! It isn't traded in the futures markets! It's man-made), we still like this CNBC graphic comparing the cost of sweet, sweet crude to other, equally coveted goods—like Budweiser beer, which costs $447.25/barrel.
