There website usually has a discount code in it for in store pickup or shipping! I snagged some recently for around 5 bucks a qt. | | | | Joined: Jun 2014 Posts: 436 Likes: 92 Member/250+posts | Member/250+posts Joined: Jun 2014 Posts: 436 Likes: 92 | I have had good luck with Petroleum Service Co.

Costco was selling it at a good price, but there's no Costco in my city. I went to a local oil distributor and they ordered it for me at wholesale price, very good deal. But after two years or so, they said they no longer sell to individuals. I then started buying online from www.airplaneoil.com [ airplaneoil.com] . | | | | Joined: Jun 2014 Posts: 368 Likes: 66 Member/250+posts | Member/250+posts Joined: Jun 2014 Posts: 368 Likes: 66 | I have been buying from airplaneoil.com too. the price is tolerable but the shipping gets the price/quart right up there. I will check out these alternatives.

If I don’t help support them they will be gone. Fuel is expensive there, but I don’t burn a lot!
I would hate to see them sell the airport land, so I like to think I’m helping them make a few dollars and keep the airport as is. | | | | Joined: Apr 2018 Posts: 426 Likes: 33 Member/250+posts | Member/250+posts Joined: Apr 2018 Posts: 426 Likes: 33 | I kind of like not having any fuel or services on our home strip. Makes it kind of secret, keeps it quiet, private and safe.
I buy my oil from Petroleum Service Co, also. | | |
