The difference between the best sale price on M1, PP, Castrol black bottle, and VSP probably would amortise out to $2 over a year's oil changes, if that. Also, it seems the 4.4 L jugs are on their way out.
Look at the distributor side of things in Canada. Imperial Oil seems to do a better job at pricing HDEOs when you buy direct, whereas Shell does a bit better with PCMOs.
You mean this $65.99 deal for one average 4.4 ltr jug plus another 1 ltr bottle where they throw in a T shirt?

No thanks, I'll stick with a 5 ltr jug of Pennzoil for $35 dollars.

Can't wait to see the prices Mobil when the 5 ltr jugs are introduced up here.
We've had the 5L jugs up here before, can't recall if it was CT or Walmart, but they were there. Regarding the "deal", I think it's like $39.99 or something when it is on sale? Regular price, for all of them, is insane.
