Kmart now has Sumitty's SuperS oil and ATF

[tommygunn]

I think they are replacing their house brand Spectrum Plus with the SuperS.

As of now they have Smitty's ATF+4, Dexron VI, regular and high mileage synthetic blend oil.

Whoever at smittys that got the kmart account gets a steak dinner I hope. A kmart account for a small oil company like that would be huge profits!

There are hardly any KMarts left,so its not as big as a NAPA,Pep Boys,AAP,AZ,O'Reilly,WM deal would be.

There are about 1,220 K-Marts as of earlier this year.

Oh and also, the Smitty's products are the same price as the old Olympic-made Spectrum Plus

It's a decent oil. Some NYC mechanic garages use it as their default oil.

Is this regional or national? I guess it doesn't really matter. My nearest K-Mart store is several hours away.

I'm guessing that this contract also includes all of the Sears Auto Centers as well??

Bingo! Most likely since Kmart and Sears are jointly owned. Sears is a much larger market with stores and service centers. I remember when Sears carried Lee oil filters. Do Lee oil filters still exist? This was 40 years ago.

My local NAPA only has Smitty's SuperS if you want Dex VI ATF.
