It's great if you combine this by buying it at Advance Auto Parts and have an AMEX credit card with offers. I had an AMEX offer for $10 off $50 at Advance Auto Parts. Advance currently has 5qts of Mobil 1 and an oil filter for $30. Bought two deals for $60. Then you get $10 off via the Amex promo. Then you also get two $15 Mobil 1 rebates. Comes out to about $20 for 10 qts of Mobil 1 and 2 filters.

$25 for a 5 quart jug at Walmart, but Walmart is not listed on the list of places eligible to buy from.

Thanks.....I was wondering when this would happen again.
They do take a Wally World receipt. I've been doing it for years.

I did the same thing. I called M1's customer service and asked them if a purchase from WalMart would qualify. They said and explained that Walmart is not a "preferred" dealer. I would bet that WalMart sells as much or more Mobil 1 oil as any auto parts store, so why do they care where you buy their oil?

I suspect it's so you will make purchases at other vendors whose prices might not be in line with Wally's price which is pretty good @ $25 for a 5 qt jug. I would stick to the current list of approved vendors to ensure actual rebates.

If you click on the box to search for eligible places, Walmart comes up. It's just not in that list on the first page.

I've taken advantage of the rebate offer probably 4 or 5 times now and they've all been purchased at Walmart. No need to worry.

Yikes! Ten quarts of oil and two filters would almost get me to 2020. Here I am already sitting with a 5qt. jug of Mobil 1 and two Mobil 1 filters that I bought from Amazon. My DIC says I've got 64% remaining on the oil that's in there.

Since you guys brought up WalMart and oil changes, I have to share this experience with you. My knees and shoulders have gotten so bad that I really can't change my own oil anymore. I received a case of Kendall 20W-50 from Amazon and decided to pay WalMart the $10 plus the price of a filter to install the oil. How "technical" can that be? I arrive at the auto center with my '69 Mustang convertible and the kid who is receiving asks what engine it has in it. I say it's a 302 and that non-metric information doesn't compute on his hand held terminal. He asks if it's a 5.0L and I say yes, I suppose it is. I tell him I want to purchase a Motorcraft FL1A oil filter and he looks up the proper application for my "5.0L" and tells me that the FL1A is not the correct filter for my car. I tell him that every 231, 260, 289, 302 and 351W Ford engine has always used the FL1A filter and he says his hand held says it should be an F20. He finally defers to an old guy in the lube room and comes back and says that, despite company policy, he'll be able to install the FL1A in the car. We go inside the store and he picks the last FL1A off the shelf. Now I do some light shopping and sit and watch part of "Beauty and The Beast" on their little flat screen in the waiting room and the kid who greeted me initially comes to the door and says the guy doing my oil change wants to talk to me. Odd, but OK. The second kid tells me he can't do my oil change due to company policy. He has found that I have an oversized drain plug on the car and they are forbidden from touching those because they might strip out the oil pan when being tightened. I tell him that the reason why the car has had the oversized drain plug is because some mook who provided service to the previous owner twenty or more years ago stripped the factory plug and it wouldn't tighten and would constantly drip. When I bought the car nineteen years ago the first thing I did was an oil change and found that the pan was stripped. The simple solution is to install a self threading oversized drain plug which will "install" the proper thread size in the oil pan on the way in. It's been that way for a successful nineteen years. He says a firm "no" and I buy the FL1A and take the car home where, with a lot of pain, I roll around on the driveway and do my own stinking oil change. At least they didn't use the United Airlines policy excuse and drag me out of the waiting room by the ankles.
