Dang. At least you were able to get some deal. Did you scan the jug to make sure that it wasn't on sale?

Yes, a buddy came with me too, and we grab different jugs and ran it under the scanner and they were all retail prices I'm going to check back today and tomorrow to see if they start the sale later. *fingers crossed*

Hope so. I went to another KMart and loaded up some more. They had valvoline maxlife for $6/gal. I purchased 4 jugs of that and one more jug of quaker state. Im truly done now. I have more than enough.

I'm sure they did lol. That's why I stated earlier it would be best to check on your own instead of calling them to find out. The last K-Mart that I went to visit, they had 3 jugs of the Val- Maxlife 10W-30 for $16/gal but had the 5W-30 for $6. They would not mark down the 10W. I told them that they were backwards because a lot of people don't hardly use 10W-30 anymore and I was going to do them a favor and help them clear up isle space. She would not mark it down so I left them. The funny thing is that they had so much dust on the jug smh...

None near me either. The only one left was shut down about a year and a half ago. I thought K-Mart ran out of business
