According to the photo of the bottle of Techron, Advance Auto's price is $18.79 for a bottle. Even getting the second bottle free, the price for the two bottles is still slightly more expensive than buying two bottles at Walmart. Walmart sells Techron for $9.36/bottle, so two bottles would cost $18.72, which is actually 7 cents cheaper than the "deal" at Advanced Auto. My point is that the Advance "deal" is no bargain, and kind of seems deceitful.

Was at Autozone yesterday and they also have the buy one get one, $11.99 for 12 ounce bottles.
Did pay attention that it was the complete fuel system treatment.
So basically $6.00 per bottle, few years (before Covid)ago would buy them at Walmart for right under $5.00.
Edit, just saw Napa is selling it for $5.49 per bottle, might stock up!

Walmart does have them at nine bucks, but these are the smaller 10 ounce bottles. The ones I scored yesterday at advance are the bigger 20 ounce.

🙄 Poor design fueling components by GM fuel engineering group... has all of us C5 folks scrambling around having to live with their screw ups... For twenty years I've been buying that Chevron Fuel Additives stuff for this GM designed fuel system.... . Three times a year for twenty years. Goodness! $😝... Thanx Chevron for the fix.

The Adv Auto in my area are all tapped out - but I went to Auto Zone and they have the BOGO on the 12oz ones and also the "high mileage" formulation.
Interesting the caveat on # of uses between oil changes....
