    I was robbed Saturday evening. Bought a couple gallons at RK that showed $6.99 on sale (shelf had a special placcard). Looked at receipt when I got home...got charged $7.99. I had other items is why I didn't notice. Not worth my trouble to go back for the 2 bucks. #robbed

    but next time you go back, bring the receipt, and show them the price for the product, maybe a pic of the flyer/promo. They should be willing to take a couple bucks off your purchase.

    Bought four gallons at TSC for $8.99 a few weeks back. Checked my local one the other day and same price. Grabbed a couple more gallons. I like the new gallon jug too. IMG_6783.JPG 5+ gallons in the hoard now. A lot for me.

    I REALLY need to refrain, especially since buZZsaw BRAD had me mail order him a few more jugs then totally forgot about it, leaving me with such a huge surplus :whistle:

    Sorry, statute of limitations has passed and you're SOL. It's all mine now :cool:
    I'm sure we'll meet up at some point. I have so much of this bar oil that I can't possibly burn through it all in the next few months, or years for that matter lol

    Thanks to Eric Wanderweg for picking up the six gallons for me. I think Biden was in office when he did. :emb: Thanks for not charging me a storage fee on these buddy!:handshake: IMG_7420.JPG

    With two plus gallons I now have over eight on hand. Think its a new record for me.
