I was at Walmart in London, KY last night. They had Valvoline full synthetic MaxLife on clearance for $13.00 for the 5 quart jugs. I bought all the 10W-30 they had even though I do not use 30 grade oil, but, I know some folk who do.
For comparison, their Maxlife blend is $14.00 a jug and their conventional is $13.00 a jug.
I don't think this has anything to do with Valvoline being for sale, just happened to be in right place at right time. I doubt they even know Valvoline is for sale.
