[JACKSMYDOG]

$5.78 for an oil filter in December, today it was $12.10, WTF?

This is what happens when gas goes through the roof. It's only a matter of time before everything else skyrockets! ?

Saving $8 isn't worth the assault on my senses of going into Walmart, lol.

Foreshadowing a TGD price increase?

"C'mon guys it's still a great deal at $75, come get'em!"

I bought a box of eight from someone on here and for a great price, now I'm super happy I bought them.

2-3AM is when all the weirdos are back home.

I know from years of experience as a shopper.

No price increases just yet but I've had to get creative with shipping lately. ?

I worked afternoons or nights most of my career, and loved doing my shopping off hours. It was glorious. In and out, not too many weirdos and most want to avoid me as much as I them.

About 5 years ago minimum wage went up about 30% over a short period and everything that was once 24 hours, shut-down their night shifts. Even coffee shops and fast food that had been 24 hours for decades, started closing over-night.

I was kidding about Walmart though, I didn't know they had Ford parts. I wonder if Canadian Walmarts carry them?

All the Wally Worlds around here have Motorcraft filters.

I like RockAuto and use them a bunch. But lately their shipping prices are crazy.

Last time I bought filters and wiper blades, I bought several - it brings down the total cost per unit quite a bit. Wipers are SO cheap on rockauto compared to what they charge in the auto parts stores!

Thanks. That's $75 CDN with shipping and exchange which is about half the cost here. There's still the FedExFukU tax at the border, which makes it a gamble. I will probably roll the dice after I get back from my road trip.
