    Stocking Up On Motor Oil

    My post was about walking into the store and buying oil. But you make a great point.. I never set foot in Costco, gas is different and you're not actually in the store, and Amazon isn't a store, so. I'll make a note to look at the price ONLINE at Walmart vs Amazon, though...

    Stocking Up On Motor Oil

    Are your driving plans changing due to fuel costs?

    Are your driving plans changing due to fuel costs?

    No, not changing. $3.59 a gallon It's still too high but it's better than it was. Gas should honestly be in the $2 a gallon range but good luck with that.
