Its in my cold unheated garage. Stays there for a couple of years before being used.
Where do you store your oil?

Those are the two exact temperatures I keep my home at - in summer and winter. I will move the daytime summer air with a ceiling fan in the living room -- another in the kitchen.

Under my pillow...And sometimes I ever-so-gently hold it like a Teddy while sleeping, but only GC...

I agree............more $$$$$$$$$$$ = more oil

Contrary to the good Dr. Haas's opinions, freezing does not render a motor oil useless.
My local Mobil oil jobber stores skids of cased motor oil in an unheated metal building which is visible when the overhead door is open.
I really doubt that Walmart suspends transport of motor oil from distribution centers to individual stores during freezing weather in the northern states!

I keep it in my heated basement on two shelves.
Where do you store your oil?
Keep it in the plastic bottles it comes in. Tried putting it in large zip-lock storage bags for a while. Hard to pour. And if a bag pops open on the shelf its quite a mess.
Thinking about Tupperware.

In the corner of the bedroom. Just bought some Pennzoil dino at [censored]'s wholesale club a little while ago. I got 2 1-gallon jugs in a case for $8.00. Comes out to $1.00 per quart. I got 3 cases of 10w-30. Almost as good of a deal as you get Bill.
for some reason it censored BeJay's
The gear oil and ATF are in the shed for the last two years.
In the cold unheated attached garage. I spoke to Valvoline and Mobil about oil storage and they said it doesn't matter if its stored in a cold garage or a heated house.

Excellent oil at an excellent price.

I store mine in my heated/air conditioned humidity contolled "oil storage" room located on the below grade floor of my home. BTW according to Pennzoil...Dr. Haas is correct as cold storage ( below 32F) reduces the shelf life of PP from 60 months to 18-24 months.

Thanks Bill, I thought it was a good deal myself. I wanted Penn 5w-30 but the Penn 10w-30 was the only oil brand/weight they had on sale. I would go back and get some more but the miss's would

On wire shelves in an unheated garage attached to the house.
I don't think mine ever goes below 42f range.

Actually, after looking over my B J's receipt a few mins ago, I paid $20.55 for 6 1-gallon jugs, after my membership discount. Comes out to $.85 per qt not $1.00 as I said before. Be that Bill,
