For all y'all that like Rotella, Advance Auto Parts (USA) has Rotella T6 on sale for $20.99/gal ($7 off) for Speed Perks members thru August.
Same deal on T5 or dino.
Pretty good deal...
How come a nationwide auto parts store charges $27.00 for a gallon of Rotella T6 but you can go to wally world and get it for $19.30 ? I would think AAP sells a hell of allot more oil than walmart but I might be wrong. If you do a bundle pack from walmart which is 3 gallons in a case you can get the Rotella T6 for $18.33 a gallon which is $54.99 for the case. That's a few oil changes but I dont mind having oil around my shop.

Okay, whatever... get it where you like.
Personally, I refuse to shop at the local ghetto WalMart for a few good reasons.
Sometimes I regret even
trying to be helpful around here. :dash2: But sometimes, there's an appreciative soul, even when others are not.
I thought you where being helpful and I think its cool that you posted a sale item to help out. I was simply saying how does one place that sells auto related items only such as advanced, not get a better deal on oil than a grocery store that sells towels and light bulbs as well as oil ?

Volume.
The Waltons buy a lot more product than other chains than other companies combined.
