or this just an anomaly? Stopped by the oil aisle at the local WM and PYB was $3.47 & QSAD was $3.57 - no rollback or sale signs, just the usual shelf sticker. This is a first that I've seen with PYB is cheaper than QSAD; 5qt jug prices are still the same with PYB being more. Is there something going on that we don't know about?? I can't see it being marketing as I'm within 30 miles of Hendrick's-ville. How about at your WM, is there a price switch?
Have the SOPUS tides turned...

I'm not a conventional user but last i glanced YB was more $ here @ my WM.
Maybe the wrong stickers were under the products or the oil has been moved and the shelf stickers are for another product. See it all the time when I go to WM.
You have to make sure to use the customer scan before you go to the checkout. You don't want any last minute surprises.
PYB is about $3.97 in the quarts and $14.50 in 5 Quart Jug at my WM.

It's not because of anything SOPUS has done. Probably just something going on in your area due to the fact of Hendricks's-ville.
I can get name brand butter for less at WM than I can their store brand. People just assume stuff is cheaper sometimes. Or they assume a price jump is entirely inflation and that the store's greediness is not in play.
WM is snarky, 50 things in your cart at 1% profit and they make twenty bucks on one little thing.

The price for a 5 quart SOPUS DINO Jug in the WM in my area is as follows:
Quaker State - $12
PYB - $14.50
PYB is justifiably more because of the strong add pack of quality detergents and with the boost of Moly in the SN formulation. QSGB is a great Dino and holds up well for a standard OCI, if not more. If you want cleaning action...go with PYB....if you want durability, as advertised....go with QSGB.

Owner of NASCAR teams and a plethora of dealerships.
At a WM 5 miles down the road the PYB & QSAD prices are back in line.

I used to work at one of his Honda dealerships - and the lone one in California, too.

I can't speak to PYB. But last night I was in Walmart looking at oil. (Due to my stash, I haven't shopped for oil in a few years). I was shocked to see that PP was $6.14/quart here -- only 25 cents less that M1! Have I been living in seclusion for too long? When did PP climb this high? I seem to recall just a year or two ago it being like $4.97/quart.

Rarely pay attention to qts. prices, too high. Buy Wally qts. only with price match.
Jugs remain the same. QS Green $12, PYB $14.50.
Temp. anomaly, imo.

Mobil 1 was just introduced in the 5-quart jugs for the 0W-20. Ask you Walmart automotive manager to order you some. It is available. Our Walmart has it now.
