    They should just go pull your order. It's bought and paid for.

    Well, between my two sons and I we don’t go through an awful lot of bar oil, but for our cost here in SC to be the same as California is just plain wrong:startled: So Jeff did you buy it online from TSC MI and list pickup at your local store in GA?

    What we bought from TSC, exactly what we did. We bought some from our local oil/gas distributor...some online from TSC...some from RK on our way to GTGS in MI and PA

    I saw the TSC sale on a Facebook group last week and felt obligated to order. I just got 2 gallons because I have plenty. I just felt my hoarder status might be suspended if I failed to participate. :rofl: :lol: I have to order through the app or I don't get reward points at the register. It happens one of my customers works there and he brought the bar oil out so we have a nice chat. I have him on the list for 3 face cords to be delivered this fall. He already got 2 earlier this year.

    LOL I didn't feel right buying the place out (they probably only had 10 to start with) when other poor saps might really need some.

    So I walked into the store and told them I had a pickup. He asked for my name, went to the locker and handed me two jugs of oil

    SCORE!!!!

    Then I got an email thanking me for picking up my order.

    Oh no, THANK YOU!

    Well, I decided to give the TSC route a try. Just picked a random TSC in MI and ordered 6 gallons. Pickup at our “somewhat” local area store.What do you know sale went through @$6.99/gal. Just got notified that my order is ready for pickup! Will give 2 gallon each to our two sons.

    Thanks all for sharing this information. It’s very much appreciated :thumbs:
