Synthetic On Sale at Wal-Mart

Don't know if it's nation wide?

Mobil 1 5Qt=$22, Penzoil 5Qt=$20.

I bought two 5 Qt jugs, just couldn't pass up the deal.

There is also a rebate: http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthr...ighlight=mobil

5Qt Jug Mobil1 used to be $26 and Penzoil $22.

Single 1 Qt bottle is still over $6 for Mobil one. I was hoping to get some 0W-20 for the winter. 0W-20 is the only thing they don't have in a jug.

For those that don't need full synthetic, the Motorcraft synthetic blend is even less. The Motorcraft oil got some good used oil analysis results.

NO
mobil 1 jug of 5qts use to be $22 then something happened with one of the refineries and they had to raise the price of mobil 1 to $26. They said it would be temporary until they had more stock.

The price is now back to normal.

How it works

U had 15 the more rep points u have the more it gives someone when u rep them. I have over a million now so when i rep someone it gives them around 20,000 rep points. If u were to rep some one it would only give about 5 rep point. U give them out how ever u want i like to give them to good articles and for people trying to help out like u posting on the cheap oil deal. So if some one on here that had say 3million rep points were to rep u, u would have went from 15 to around 60,000 points.

If somebody with several thousand rep points reps you, you get a few rep points

If somebody with mega rep points, (say a million) then their repping you could be 10's of thousands of points.

There are threads where the sole purpose is to rep each other every 24 hours to build up to mega rep status....thanks for the M 1 heads up except my most local store is about sold out

It used to be just under $20 a jug during their frequent sales until the oil price reached record high last year or could be the refinery problem you mentioned. It stay at $26 for a long time.

They have "roll back" price tag when I bought some yesterday. The one Qt bottles are still the same high price price. They used to be under $5.0
