Anyone know where the best prices on motor oil is? I have done 3 oil changes in the past 4 months and seems like oil prices are getting higher...
On the plus side I got an extra half a liter laying around so may try the transmission fluid and oil lube mix

I work for an oil distributor. I get to buy my oil at cost, but if I didn’t I would go Walmart.
They have prices on some brands that are close to what we pay...
No, you might also check with a local distributor in your area and see if they would sell you your type of oil in a larger container like a 5 gallon pail. You might save money that way.

Walmart, and sometimes O'Reilly will have a special and the price is a few bucks cheaper than Walmart. I just check both before buying.

Walmart for oil hands down. Check online for filters, I get the K&N oil filters I like for almost half price but I have to shop around and sometimes buy 10+ at a time. I also find different locations have better options and sales. The one off beach and 121 has a lot larger selection than the one off 287 and Avondale haslet.

A lot of times I get mine at Tractor Supply. A couple times a year they send me a 10% off coupon and since I'm AG excempt, I don't pay tax on oil purchased there.
I buy a years worth of filters for all my vehicles from FleetFilter.com

I use the Walmart super tech 0w-20 full synthetic in all of my Toyotas . I have sent two different samples off to Blackstone Labs with excellent data on a used oil analysis. I use a 10000 mile oil change intervals most of the time and occasionally I change it at 8500. I am paying $15.98 for the 5 qt jug. Excellent oil especially for the price.

Most of my cars I buy Mobile 1 and filters from Walmart, Fiat I can only find at AutoZone, Challenger I order oil and filter from Amazon.

Its been a while, but I read somewhere that Walmart has mobile make their oil for them. I know that doesn't mean its just mobile 1 in another jug, but its close enough for me. I wish they would make a 5w40 synthetic diesel oil.

As far as I know Warren performance products and Mobil make the oil for Walmart. I have run the supertech conventional motor oils for years and had several engines go over 200,000 with it it is good oil.

Occasionally Home Depot has an excellent 5 W 30 and 10 W 30 conventional motor oil made by Shell on sale for $10.97 for a 5qt jug. I bought 4 jugs here recently.
