Average price per qt/case 15W50?

The mech just charged me $4.50qt for 100W for the oil change during the
annual inspection. That's $54 for 12. I remember the last two cases I bought
were about $48 last fall. We use 100W year round and change oil every 50hrs
in the 0-540 with a 250HP STC.

Hi All,

I've burned through my last four cases of 15W50 and was about to reorder
from my local Shell distributor when I was shocked to find that the price
of a case of 12 qt bottles has risen to $68. I used to pay around
$47/case from these people, but that was several years ago (last time I
ordered it had risen to $56). It's hard to ignore the impact of crude
prices on this stuff, but jeez.

Can any of you who are able to get this stuff at Walmart or other
distributors (or heck...anyone who's bought a single quart from an FBO
lately) give me some prices so I can clarify how good a deal this is?

Thanks for the help,

-Doug
