Hi,

Walmart may not be the best place to buy oil anymore Bill...
I can not remember the last time I've bought oil there.
Most of my stash came from Checkers when you could buy Chevron for 49 cents a quart, Pennzoil for 49,59 and 69 cents a quart, QS for 49,59 cents a quart, Castrol GTX for 69 cents and Syntec blend for 89, 99 cents a quart!
I don't buy oil at normal prices ...

Did you check to see if they have my MaxLife 10W-40 in the 5Qt jug?
Nope, don't have any engines that require high mileage oils and so since I don't need to run it, I don't look.
The Valvoline was around $11 for the 5qt jug of AC.

Mobil is probaly thinking there is going to be a change in the weather.
Well, They need to make sure they show some proft...

havoline 5qt jugs at walmart for 8.xx are the best deal for name brand dino
Havoline is real close to the same price as Pennzoil now.. I think $9.48 for 5 qt jug?
quote:
The only deal left at Walmart are Motorcraft filters for $3.28.
That is a good price. But I think the Supertech filters for $2.07 is a excellent deal!

Though I will always buy at Kragen/Pep Boys when onsale,
Mike, I will
NOT NOT buy anything at Pepboys after my last rebate problems and their LACK of customer service!
(it also helps that they are 30 miles one way from me!)

Used a lot of M1 over the years. Been very happy with it. Just a gut feeling that M1 is better in a Toyota engine
Instead of the gut feeling, run a few UOAs!
In my Toyota,the UOA on M1 was not as good as Castrol GTX, Mobil drive clean and especially Pennzoil dino (the best one so far
)!
And for gas miles per gallon, all oils do well(same) (the worst was Mobil drive clean BTW)
quote:
I only buy in 5Q containers so I found WalMart to be the best. Mobil 1 is $21.xx and Pennzoil Plat is $19.98. That + ~$4.10 to 4.40 per quart.
Go buy some and stock up . I bet before the
end of the month you'll see the same prices I saw yesterday! You'll save $1 per quart.

I normally don't go to K-Mart, but I was right next to it and needed gum and Tums. As always, I took a trip to the oil section. Superflo 1.39 a quart,
Good oil and excellent "normal" price. If I had to go out and buy oil right now, that is the winner!
Take care all! Bill
