Walmart oil prices - Ah!

[Sequoia06]

It’s time to stretch your OCI to 6-7k now trust the oil trust it

While playing base oil lottery on any motor oil made since March…

If only someone could have predicted this…

Just stop! It was foreseeable and people didn't execute caution. They didn't have their head on a swivel. Walmart isn't the cure or answer and the toilet paper epidemic a few winters past should be a teaching tool.

Well, that's true. Ditto paying more for gas. But the world runs on oil, so those costs flow through to just about everything. Prices go up or margins suffer.

Sure, but the comment was about finally seeing motor oil go up in price and I guess that was my real point. Motor oil is one of the last places I'm worried about seeing higher oil prices. Even with four vehicles, it's insignificant compared to the way higher oil prices ripple through the economy by increasing the cost of shipping, manufacturing, farming, aviation, construction, and ultimately just about everything we buy. The indirect costs of higher oil prices dwarf what most of us spend on motor oil itself.

My local Walmart . Castrol is still priced very well. Might switch to that in the mean time. I just have GM vehicles (Silverado and Enclave) and a Jeep wrangler. Only my truck gets driven a lot, the other two can probably go to the end of the year.

Yep, exactly the same as a Chicagoland Walmart I was at yesterday. (pictures above)

I spend more on a tank of gas than an entire OCI, so I'm not too distressed but I do like to get a good deal. So, I bought a year or two's worth last month.

O.K. But the the toilet paper hype was a total hoax popularized on the TV. It was made up scam. Nobody had run out of toilet paper.

Just paid 6 dollars more for another 5qt jug of Mobil 1 ESP 0W-30 at Walmart for the wife's car. 31 bucks isn't bad for an oil change, but adds up

 

[burbguy82]

Ok, now we are at 35-40 bucks per 5 quart at Walmart for Grp3 name brand

$1 per quart huh?

Out of curiosity I checked out the WM oil isle in Baytown TX today. I see NO price increases. ST full syn at $18.97, Pennzoil full syn at $23.97 etc. Lots of full syns for $25 or less.

You bums the Castrol EP gold jug is usually over $60 here. It's a good oil buddy run it with complete confidence

 

[Hall]

$16.88 for Supertech, 5 quart
$20.97 for Quaker State Full Synthetic or Castrol GTX, 5 quart
$19.97 for Valvoline Maxlife synthetic blend, 5 quart

Prices at walmart.com have now increased to

$22 for Supertech
$30 for QS and $26 for GTX
$23 for Valvoline

Interestingly, you can't filter by "supertech" currently. Those oils show up but you can't set the page to only show Supertech.

I’d be curious as well.

my guess is rhat it would do just as good as m10w40, but that just a guess.

call em and ask.

i have used the 5w30 in the past. The price on my screenshot was all the member price...keep that in mind.

they also had a semi syn in but i think they might have got rid of it.

I have a membership and have run a variety of their fluids with absolutely no gripe. Id say normally the srt 6.2 gets the SS and right now mine has M1 0w40 but anything after that is fair game.

$35.97 for a 5 jug last night. Out the door was $38.58. We're getting dangerously close to $8/qt for a jug. Add the single quart I still need for the six required and just the oil will be at $50 for this OCI. This is why I go 10k.

Wow. Back when it was $26.50 + rebate, it was a good deal. $40 is pretty steep. Even now.

Just checked my Walmart and ultra platinum jumped to 39.97 from 29.97. Esp jumped from 27.97 to 31.97. If that price holds I’ll just stick to esp over the ultra platinum after I deplete some of my current stock. Restore and protect jumbled to 35.97
