"The Boys" here in NJ stock the Syntec 5w40. Didn't see any Castrol products on their website, but on Castrol's site they're listed as a retailer, so I called. BTW, their standard price is $7.49/qt.

Maybe Autozone's going to have the same promo, but I called them before I knew about the Pep Boys deal and they said nothing about it. Then again the mouth breathers working at the local store don't seem motivated to sell anything.

I've read threads here and elsewhere about Walmart having a standard $27.50 deal on a Syntec 5 qt jug, which is what I was really looking for because there's so much less packaging waste. All of Walmarts within reasonable distance only have 10w30 and a couple other more common weights that aren't recommended for our cars, and all said they can't order the 5w40.
