I see you’re in Arizona.
@tired is “out west.”
I think I know why you can’t find any. Someone “out west” is buying it all!
Yeah, it's just weird though... Like certain Walmart stores seem to care less what their aisles and product availability is. One would think with all their cameras and computer technology, they would be more on-top of things.
I don't need to shop at Walmart. I just go to get a good deal on oil. I have a bunch of filters and therefore, am trying to just buy oil. It's easier to go to O'Reilly's and get the matched Oil and filter deal. Nevertheless...
Walmart stores are hit & miss in my experience. It just makes me wonder though...

Both Walmart Super Stores nearest me have very shallow stock. I went in January and they had a wall of the stuff, a month ago: 2 bottles (I bought them both), last week: zero bottles.
The Advance across the parking lot had 3 bottles last week. 39.99/ea

We have always been short on that oil - I got some online along with other popular (ESP, etc) lubes - even at rollback recently
5w-30 is $37 at Amazon as of today.
Not for us

Call me crazy……..but I buy car parts at a car parts store. And I completely despise stepping foot in Walmart.
I’ve never seen a lack of Valvoline Restore and Protect at orilleys, Napa or AutoZone

My local Walmart was like this day before yesterday. Oil filters were like many others have stated with no fram’s, mine had some Toyota OEM filters along with a few Mopar and AC Delco. The oil aisle was well stocked and surprisingly the biggest few holes on the shelf was Supertech. Mobil 1 was on the best rollback deal at $24.97(I think) and it was slap full.
Edit: Havoline synthetic six quart boxes were all gone*
My local walmart just finally started to carry Valvoline Restore and Protect. I haven't been down the oil isle in a couple weeks, so not sure what the stock is like there. I took advantage of O'reilly's deal on oil with a microgaurd select filter, so I didn't buy any from Walmart.
Matter of fact, I ordered some Valvoline Restore and Protect 5W30 online and it was delivered within 3 hours to my door yesterday.
I'm trying to stay away from Walmart because if I go and see it, I might buy it. My willpower sucks and I really need to use some of my stash like the Castrol sales/rebates.
I’m getting a pack of 3 five quart jugs on Amazon “Subscribe & Save” for $89.91. That comes out to $29.97 for a 5 quart jug. Plus I use my Amazon Store credit card for an additional 5% savings.
My theory about this is that people who end up as retail store managers aren't particularly intelligent.
thanks for including a link in addition to the screenshot
