I posted this info on another topic, but I think it deserves it's own heading...
I was in our local (Austin, TX) Wal Mart today, looking for oil - change time is approaching for the S - next weekend. Wal Mart here was stocked to the gills with oil. There were dozens of the 5 quart size Mobil 1 containers in 5w 30, 10w 40, and 15w 50!!! It was all priced at $18.88 a container, works out to $3.77 QT. They also had Shell Rotella, and many other brands in good stock. I think this may be a father's day thing, so I wanted to alert everyone, in case you are like me and avoid the "mart" at every opportunity. Good Luck...

Just picked up two 5-quart jugs of 15w50 at the Walmart here in Suwanee, GA (NE Atlanta) at that same price. They had plenty.
