Navi is well known to lecture nonsensical things, so I'm not surprised. He can live his live thinking that oil "expires" after 5 years when there are hundreds of threads and discussions here that flies into the face of his whitepapers. I'll put on my foil hat for a few seconds by saying that most oil companies publish such things to encourage you to buy more of their product vs hedging inflation, plain and simple.

I caved and bought a 12qt box of 10W30 tonight for $32. They had a second one but I refrained. I feel like I'll need to keep a clean 5qt jug around to know what I'm dispensing? How do others handle the 12qt boxes?
I could also use one of the graduated paint mixing pails.

My experience with Walmart is many times what shows as available for store pickup online, can't be found in the store.
The lastest fiasco for me at least, was trying to have 32 gal trash cans delivered for $19.97. Both occasions, email confirming delivery. A pic was taken of my front steps, with no trash can in the pic. Never seen amazon fail to that extent--claiming delivery when nothing was delivered, and proof of delivery shows it wasn't.
If I can buy something for pickup at the store, this has worked. Meaning, the store staff finds the item and then it's moved to the pickup area (separate part of the building). Otherwise, it's pretty difficult and often doesn't matter what online says. This happened with Asian Zerex (Toyota pink) for $7/gal. Said 5 gal avail and I wanted all 5. Nope

50 year old straight 30 in lawn equipment is not a sensible comparison to modern formulations in modern engines.
The base oil doesn’t “go bad” but the add pack does. The question is not if but when. No way to know exactly when it will degrade without proper testing.
LSjr Tests VOA of 20 yr old Valvoline & 40 yr old Mobil 1 Oil. HPL tests Anti-Foam in Gear Oil.
Lake Speed Jr sends off some, shaken up, new & 20 year old virgin Valvoline synpower for analysis to discuss their differences. Results are Water in oil, Oxidation, Additive package depletion (Chemical degradation) are characteristics of the old oil. Don' use. Also, He tests 40-50 year old...

Scanned every weight I could find at my local WM; None were on sale. Bummer. I'm stocked up, anyway, so it's probably for the best.

How do you scan these without needing an associate? I'm interested as long as I don't need there help lol
Walmart app.
exactly, takes at most 20 seconds?
I was at walmart.
Quaker State Full Synthetic 5w40 and 10w30 were both for $3 per quart
Quaker State 20w50 was $2.5 per quart
SuperTech Full Synthetic 10w30 5 quart Jug was $14
SuperTech Advance Full Synthetic 10w30 5 quart Jug was $12 (and no I do not have it backwards, the advance version was cheaper)
there were many other various items mostly in the 10w30 flavors and the 12 quart eco-friendly box were on sale including SuperTech and 2 Mobil flavors
It's on sale because boxes suck
I bought two 12qt box of 0W20 for $27.50 each; not $2/qt target but close. I also bought four gallons of PEAK® Coolant For Asian Vehicles - Blue for $6.50 each. They have the European Vehicles - Blue for the same price.
Wanted the Mobil1 0w40 but full price.

Great deal !
I bought two boxes (all they had) at $49 so yes, that’s a great deal.
I bought the single one of these they had. Saw some 5w40 that was already cleared. QS jugs I think.
