Over 97 qts, less than $70 spent on it.
24 qts of Mobil 1 EP ($1.12/qt), 5 qts Mobil 1 ($1/qt), 13 qts GC (5 free, the rest $4/qt), 20 qts Dura Blend (free), 16 qts Max Life (free), 4 qts All-Climate($0.79.qt), and 5qts Mobil 5000 (free).
The price of the 5 qt Havoline dino jug at Wally World went up $2. This is getting ridiculous! There's no reason for the price to be going up this much.
Sure there is, Bottgers: The evil empire has successfully bought the market from everyone else, so now their prices are going up. Each individual store follows this practice, and now the entire empire is following it in unison.
I'm with StuartH on this one. He and I live fairly close together down here in the south-central states and oil isn't as cheap here as I read it is in other places. I just bought a case of Havoline 10W40 at Advanced Auto for $15.36 plus tax and was happy to get it for that. It's for a Auto-Rx cycle.
Funny how prices are not cheap down here in Louisiana, where most of this stuff originates from. Oh well my 32 quarts of GC and 17 liters of Lubro Moly are already bought.
Perhaps I'll learn to look harder for better prices before I use up the stock I have now.

Well, lets see. My M1 is worth more then twice what I paid for it, my dino is up from 10% to 50% over my cost. My stock is from 1 month to 14 months old, so my % gains are variable based on time held. The best part is, it won't ever drop below the purchase price. All this without doing any rebates.
