I just went to 3 more Walmart's. I found 1 jug of 5w30. I asked the manager if it was discontinued, she looked it up and said "yes" and "that there was nothing planned in the foreseeable future to order more."

I have never bought QS UP. But, the brands I have purchased like Mobil 1 ESP and Valvoline Restore and Protect would ship from those two vendors.
The sellers can be from wherever, but they fulfill orders through legit companies. I see many listings at good prices for QC UP on eBay. You can also negotiate the price if they accept "best offer" on their listings.
The nice thing about eBay is you have 100% buyer protection...I know this as I sell tens of thousands of dollars of items on eBay each year and have been scammed by buyers, as eBay always takes the side of the buyer, not the seller. If they took the side of the seller all the time, they would lose customers.
I do not see 5w-30 available at the moment. Set up a search on your eBay account for 5 quart jugs and it will automatically email you when a new listing comes up.

I have been buying mine at local Menards. They have plenty in stock and price isn't bad either.

I thought this oil was a Walmart exclusive?
I wonder if they have different stock or UPC numbers for SP and SQ?
Walmart has “clearanced” and restocked Quaker State Euro several times, not sure why but I have a stash of SN and SN Plus from clearance deals and they still stock it (again).
The stuff i bought today was SP. You might be on to something.

@SunnySD did you look at Walmart's website? It's still available there in various grades. Maybe the Walmart employee meant they're not going to carry it anymore in that store location, or maybe she doesn't know what she's talking about.
I suggest buy it from Walmart online or go to a different Walmart location if you want to try to buy it instore.

Get Quaker State Euro 5W-40 then. Even thicker, and it has more stringent approvals. And it's cheaper.
Quaker State Ultimate Protection seems to be out of stock online and all local stores in my area. Hopefully they aren’t discontinuing it. It’s a steal when it goes on sale for $21/jug. I’ve been using it as my house oil lately from everything from cars to my generator.
