Glad I got two jugs last trip to Walmart, although when the roads are wet and salty I can easily polish off a jug in two days trying to keep the road spray from encrusting my windshield.

Well you need to look at it two ways. One is the percentage it went up and the other is how much will this cost you extra per year. So this will make your annual vehicle operating expense go up $2 to $3 a year. Basically noise. Now if gas goes up by that same percentage that's a big deal as you use hundreds of gallons of gas a year not 2 gallons like the WW fluid.

Anyone here with a swimming pool ? - my chemical costs have doubled - and we don’t have a heated pool so it goes through chemicals when not in use too …

We are so being played for the fools we actually are.

WM runs their own trucking fleet and is struggling like everyone else, so low value stuff is the first to get bumped.

Their logistics are the world standard. You'll notice you still have items on the shelves.

That makes sense, washer fluid is a low cost product that takes a lot of space and weight on a truck. However, the empty holes on the shelves at Walmart are especially noticeable these days!

I normally buy my winter fluid during the summer sales. For summer fluid, I make my own until know!
