Now Rocco Shirts Chicago is adding to the list with its "Beer Is Cheaper Than Gas" shirt. "To fill up an average car with gas would cost you $84," said Bernie DiMeo, owner of Rocco Shirts Chicago (www.roccoshirts.com). "If however you buy a keg of domestic beer the average cost is $75," DiMeo said. "So our suggestion is Drink – Don't Drive," DiMeo said. "It's not only a safety factor, it's fiscally smart as well."
