I just found out that I can purchase good synthetic oil at walmart and then have them change the oil in my work van. The price was $19.99 for the full package of labor and material up to 5qt of oil but if you bring your own oil for changing then they will partially reduce the bill for customer material.
You can actually watch them change the oil so as to make sure it is your own oil that they are using.
I did this for one of my big diesel utility van, took ~2.5 gallon of synthetic oil, the price for those shell oil where about $17 bucks per gallon, plus their labor of $9.90, my entire oil change cost was $60.9 for synthetic oil on a diesel van. It will be much less if you have a passenger car. My local shop quote me $30 bucks for just the labor and the other dealership quoted me $80 for using regular oil.
Great deal if you have a walmart near you that does oil change, just be nice to them and they can also install free wipers. lol (just ask them nicely after you have purchased the wipers and they are driving your car out of the shop.)
They also have great Rain-x wipers those slick good looking type thats for $7 any size from 18" to 26", not sure if its regionally or not but those Rainx wipers were right beside their service desk. The ones on regular shelves where much more expensive.
Btw, they don't show this on their list of services, you will ask them about bringing your own oil and have them does the oil change with filter. They will reduce the price when you are ringing up.

but they are the cheapest for getting a synthetic oil change done, provided you buy your oil and filter on sale.
My local inde. mech. only charges $15 labor and I can walk in most morning with no wait. Try that with Walmart.
