Because it's winter. Saw it happen many times. Maybe not as big an increase as this, but everybody is jumping on that bandwagon. Raising minimum wage gave companies a perfect excuse. Inflation has just eaten up that small wage increase.
Washer Fluid price increase at Walmart

I just noticed that there was only one brand of winter fluid, it was the orange rainX at walmart.
I stuck with the blue stuff (San Antonio TX)

Raising an occasional purchase by $1-$2 whatever. The hard part is the energy and food requirements people need for basic necessities that is meaningful impact to those living on the edge.
Apparently living on the edge is about 50% of America who seriously don’t have a $1000 in bank for emergency.

Menards sells Splash Purple -35F washer fluid, and it is at $2.99 as of my posting. My store has 640 gallons.
yeah, you're right.
I was dividing the difference between two numbers by the average of the two numbers.
should have calculated the difference relatively.
well, it was almost midnight....
I went to WM today and bought 3 gal of washer fluid for $1.78/gal(said so on the shelf).
When I went to checkout, it rang up $3.27. They change it for me at the register.
The SuperTech full synthetic 20,000 mile is now >$26.** / 5 qt jug. No price on the 12 qt boxes.
I bought some 2cycle oil, a FRAM Ultra 7317 and 5qt jug of Pennzoil Full Syn 0W20 $19.97. It not PUP, just regular syn.

I know that people complain about that, but my local Walmarts have had issues keeping stuff stocked ever since they have opened.
You forgot to mention the part where all the self serv price check scanners are all broken or missing.

Walmart's app can scan the bar code
I will have to research this. I wonder if I can scan via their website. I won't use an app unless I have to.

Do you guys have this stuff ? I buy a half dozen in the fall - so when I can’t find the 0° or even 22°
I paid $3.50 at Ace in Truckee, CA for “winter” washer fluid. Walmart wants $8 for brake clean, O’Reilly and the local parts house is the best deal now.
Right! And I couldn't find an employee who has the app on their phone for the price check. However the sticker on the shelf did say, $1.78 which needs to be changed. Everything else I purchases was the correct price.
They’re trying to make up for the 30 gallons of -20 washer fluid they shipped to me for free in October.. think total cost was around $45. -20 is hard to find in ga and I needed it to fill tractor tires.
I think we have a winner here! This also explains why no SuperTech wiper blades. If you have to limit your stock, only sell the more profitable stuff.
Above: "......only sell the more profitable stuff." AND raise the price of blue water.
So the, "Live Better", credo at Walmart applies to them, not the customers ?

What product has lower margins and takes up more shelf space and costs more to ship than washer fluid? Still a deal for $4/gallon.
