Mobil 1 truck and SUV on clearance in advance auto parts

Stopped at a few AAPs in my travels on Friday and Saturday. 2 stores still had jug inventory. One had six jugs of 0w20 at 23.xx and another had 4 jugs of 5w20 at 23.xx. I passed. I don't think the stores around me are going to fall any farther because I think they have been at these prices since the start of the discount. I would need these in the teens to be worth buying. All stores around me show an online price of 38.99.

Sometimes when they fall to 0.05 when clearance is over and they aren't supposed to be sold, you get lucky and a clerk will let them go at that price. I'm sure that's coming soon.

Ya they were going down to $11-15.55 per jug in my area and I scooped up around 50ish?? jugs at that mark, then shot back up $23/$38.99 for some reason?? Very Weird???


They're getting VERYYYYYYYY tight with the .05 deals !! I lucked out on some AC/Delco filters and few jugs of the green Castrol GTX 10W40 from 2023 AAP clearance wave @ .05 cents
 
Glad you were able to get some at the store. Last night I saw this $14/jug promotion too after hours and purchased 4 more jugs online for future pickup. So this likely explains this situation. It is a nation wide discount for participating locations. The locations are the ones that have been earmarked to close in 2025 from the public announcement. That seems the common denominator why 99% is showing regular price while others are heavily discounting this brand/flavor for now. That’s my only assumptions. I guess I’m done now playing with enough inventory to last me ~4 years for both my Toyotas. Good luck everyone.
Picked up my 4 jugs of 0W-20 this evening. There was no M1 Truck & SUV left on the shelves, all of it had been pulled. Saw online discount at that same store individual quarts were $5.36 for 5W-20 so I passed on those. Couldn't find any other M1 Truck & SUV 0W-20 online at clearance price so I guess I got what was left at that store. Wound up with 5 oil changes for my Ram Hemi for about $3.50 / quart. I'm plenty happy with that for full synthetic formulation, cheaper than Super Tech.

This store had a carboard sign in the window All Sales Final so I guess this is one of the stores slated for closure. My receipt today was on yellow paper and marked All Sales Final, the clerk drew a black X over the UPC codes on my 4 jugs at checkout.

This wasn't done on the 3 jugs of M1 Truck and SUV oil I bought on clearance earlier at my nearest AAP store, and that receipt was on white paper not marked All Sales Final. I guess this means my nearest store isn't on this round of store closures.
 
Well I was still able to use the“2024 Black Friday motor oil” search term in a different browser (Chrome) and still obtain the clearance pricing.

Remaing clearance jugs of 0W-20 are further away in areas of town I rarely visit but individual quarts are still available nearby. So I bought two quarts of 5W-20 to go with my only jug of 5W-20 for 1 complete oil change for my truck. The clerance price online clearance price for me is $5.36 / quart. I applied my $5 Speedperks earned when I purchased the 0W-20 jugs, so 2 quarts for $5.72 which is $2.68 / quart.
 
Picked up 2 more jugs of 5w20 at $10.49.

I spoke to the lady and they had a lot of the 0w20,5w20 and 5w30.

I asked if they can make a deal for all of it but they said not till now. Maybe closer when they are closing

So what happens if someone puts this "Truck / SUV" 5w30 oil... in a regular car?

Picked up a nice load , a few Advanced locations are closing nearby. Average $2.94 per quart View attachment 253493
Where do you live? When I was at one AAP, he said none in our area were closing (southern PA) and that most of the closings are Carquests and locations west of Nevada. Can't take this as gospel at all as he didn't seem like the most reliable messenger.
 
I’m in Akron Ohio Seems like the older under performing stores are closing. All the store is 30% off , oil is almost at Walmart prices.
 
stopped by the same AutoZone with the manager who recognizes me today since I was passing within a block of the store...none left on the shelves and when I was headed towards the door he asked if he could help me...I started to tell him what I was looking for and he recognized me and said "we just put them in the back yesterday." and offered to check...

The manager said you wanted 5W-30 right? and I replied yes...he came out with the same 2-5 quart jugs that they had out before and scanned them at the register...then said they still ring up $27...let me see what I can do for you...how about $15 apiece...I said $30 for the two...YES...

persistence sometimes pays...:cool:
