Deal Details
Looks like Amazon matched Walmart's price... but Walmart doesn't have any available online, and most stores are out of it. Given the price of a barrel of US Crude has gone from about $70 to close to $120 in a year's time (and some analysts believe it could go as high as $180 a barrel), it has driven up the price of most everything that is made with petroleum. Yes, this is synthetic, but if regular oil prices go up, then this tends to go up as well. It was recently selling on Amazon for close to $50. I need 5w-40 in two of my vehicles, so I have been tracking it. I ended up ordering 3 gallons.

Good deal while it lasts (and it's currently OOS, but you can still place orders for your next oil change). Oh, and I took the word "diesel" out of the title since this Shell 5w-40 synthetic is used in many non-diesel cars as well (like my VW turbo's) and it can cause confusion.

Rotella T6 5W-40 is available in the 2.5 gal jugs for $60 at Tractor Supply and other farm stores. That's about $24/gal. So, this deal is lukewarm, at best -- about a 2% savings. However, if you only needed a single gallon, it's a good deal.

Check Walmart, as it still has the $23.xx pricing with YMMV in-store availablility.

Damn, I just checked and see what you mean... it was available when I purchased it (and I was surprised you could still order, so I posted it). Damn, that was fast...

You're welcome... btw, when I looked at first, there WERE at least a few Walmart stores near me that had it for the same price. Now, given I hate going into Walmarts, and premium gas is now over $5 a gallon... of course I ordered from Amazon vs Walmart. None the less, check your nearby Walmarts, some store may still have it in stock (if you haven't already tried that, of course).

Walmart online allowed ordering 4 and free shipping to Alaska. Been waiting for awhile for in store replenishment which still hasn't happened…Thanks OP!

Hey, for those still looking, I noticed Home Depot is selling it for less than $25 per gallon. Good deal if you can't get it for $24.

The regular price for this is $25/gal at most stores that carry it and aren't gouging (auto parts stores). The problem is finding it. I've seen it on the shelf once in the last two years (Menards) and I bought 4 gallons, one oil change for my diesel truck.

Was just at Walmart an hour ago and there's none on the shelf. They only have T4 and 2 gallons of T5 left. None of my local autozones carry it and the teller says the system won't even allow them to order it from their supplier.

Picked up 1 yesterday. There were 2 but I didn't hoard them despite how much I wanted to.
