walmart clearance score, did I do well?

[1978elcamino]

This weekend I happened to stroll down the clearance isle with the family while returning my battery core. I noticed three 1 gallon jugs of conventional valvoline 15w40 diesel oil for 5 bucks each, so 1.25 a qt. Although I dont own a diesel I would be more than happy to use it in all my garage toys. Was it a deal or no deal?

I want to know what his garage toys are first. Then I'll give him a thumbs-up or thumbs down.

Garage toys = Things like lawnmowers, pressure washer, edger, generators, trimmers, also a few air cooled dirtbikes and ATV's. I keep a stock of RK house brand conventional 10w30 for those but at the price point in which I bought this oil I feel good about putting it to good use. Im in Florida so extreme cold starting never happens. I dont believe I really own anything that needs fancy oil. My motocross bike I do run 5w40 Rotella T6 only.

Is it new or used oil in the bottle?

Only you can decide if you did good. Face book would be the best place to ask

 

[kschachn]

Never mind, sorry misread.

Its new, the plastic tabs are on the lid, never broken.

Monty Hall would call that a deal for sure.

It's a great deal..... and you are in FLORIDA!

Pour it into anything you own, especially during the summer!

(for the record, 15W-40 has been in every piece of farm equipment we owned in North Dakota, and YES - we start that stuff when its 40 below zero!!!)

I would had bought it and looked for more. I use 15/40 in my 2007 gasser pickup, zero turn powered by kaw, atv and my diesel tractor.
