Another Stash thread

I have too much to list. between 5 and 600 quarts of various oils. Hav, Mobil, ST, Redline, QS, Delo. I'm bad, I know it, and I love it. The only 12 step that works for me is the 12 steps I take to the garage!
Would you believe that most of my stash is SL, purposely bought because I knew the new SM was coming? I don't buy new vehicles, so I don't have to worry about new specs and if I buy a used vehicle that specs SM someday, I probably won't care if I put SL in it anyway.
OK, here goes.
Formula Shell Dino:
18 2/3: 10w30 SL/GF-4
5 : 5w30 SL/GF-3
16 : 5w30 SL/GF-4
Schaeffer Supreme 7000 Synthetic Blend:
2 : 5w30 SL/GF-3
Phillips 66 TropArtic Synthetic Blend:
9 1/3 : 5w30 SM/GF-4
Havoline Dino:
10 : 5w30 SM/GF-4
9 : 10w30 SM/GF-4
6 : 5w20 SM/GF4
Total: 76 quarts
Two things strike me about this:
1. Compared to some, I'm a rank amateur at this oil stash business!
2. It's still lotsa motor oil, enough for both cars for ~3 yrs.

My stash of SLOB (36 pints):
Wow!
I have a small stash, but I have only been visiting here for a month or two. This site has helped me find good prices on maxlife and HD PP.
As it is now I think I have a 3 year stash for two cars.
15qt at Maxlife 5w30 (7.50 per 5)
10qt maxlife 10x30 (5 qt FAR)
12qt PP 10w30 (HD @2.60 -15.00 rebate)
5qt Hav 10w30 for ARX rinse
5qt GTX 10w30 for ARX rinse
and as any good BITOGer:
6 qts of GC waiting for ARX to finish to try.

Tallpaul,
That, my friend, is a thing of beauty (the previous pics of your oil and your SLOB). And don't think we didn't notice the nice backdrop you made for your additives before photographing them!
I have no idea why my wife doesn't understand this hobby. In any case, I would like to be remembered in your will.
(ps. we are all freaks).

Tim,
You're dead on.

How I envy you both with those stashes of oil. You must have understanding wives/partners! I have 25 litres Mobil 1 10W-30 and 10 litres Havoline 10W-30 and she gives me funny looks when I look at oil in the motor factors.

She is pretty busy, so usually doesn't notice when I admire my stash. But she has told me that oil is a turn off, so I have to be careful when I play with oil.
Hee hee, if only she knew I borrowed our bed sheet for the backdrop. At least I borrowed it from the dirty laundry basket and not the clean pile.

She'd only remind me of other areas where I have wasted money. As far as oil changes go, she'd as soon spend three times as much and have someone else do it. My only excuse is to remind her of the several times boneheaded "technicians" screwed the filter or plug too tight.
In a marriage there are many area where you must compromise. I only take a stand on the most important things, one of which is oil changes, another is that my personal vehicle will have a manual transmission. Most else is negotiable.
