Oil Fetish...

[Studebaker]

I have always wandered over to the oil displays in the stores, so that is nothing new. But in the time I have followed this forum, things have gotten worse. The information I have garnered, along with my inability to pass up a bargain, has developed into a quest.
I drive a 99 Cherokee 4.0, and also change oil in a 2003 Wrangler 4.0 and 1994 S-10 (4 cyl).
I have 19 qts of GC for the Cherokee.
I pass 3 Walmarts in a 20 mile ride, and their prices all vary. At one, I picked up 24 qts of Pennzoil (12 5/30, 12 10/30) at 1.24/qt. The other two have it at 2.09. Then one of the others had maxlife 5/30 full synthetic on the clearance aisle at $12 for a 5 qt jug (I bought 3). The 3rd had synpower at $12/jug (I bought 2) along with 6 loose quarts. There are 2 jugs of maxlife syn left at store 2, and store 1 is clearing out mobil 1 @ 17.92/jug.
So much oil, so little cash left.

I forgot to mention the last 13 qts of motorcraft blend at the walmart I picked up, alond with 6 motorcraft filters.

I have been to two Walmarts by me--no score.

Would love some of that Synpower or Maxlife Synthetic for $12 a jug.

I scored the last 5qt Synpower 10w30 jug today from the Wally's I went oil splurging last week. It was hidden among new oils..$10/jug. I now have 6 jugs total and 7 loose qts for $1.50 each.

Yesterday, I almost bought 3 gallons of Delo 400 15w40 for $4/jug. I'm supposed to pick up 12qts for $0.99/qt from Kragens but they cannot locate a boxed case of Delo(UPC needed for $0.59 rebate)..they offered gallons instead but turned it down.

Last night I felt real bad of not taking the Delo..

Fetish is an understatement? I can't stop thinking of buying more motor oil since I scored the GC/$1 weeks ago..and from various oil sale scores from AZs and Wally's to Kragens.

I need help.

At last count my 'collection' is at 107 quarts of oil. I will not buy any more oil for atleast 5 years.

I also do the oil changes for my wife, mom, dad. Sometimes you gotta stock up when you see a good deal.
