I'm a 45 minute drive from Auto Zone. What is the deal, is it worth driving for to stock up?

Here are a couple of posts on the subject.
Little late in posting this since its on all the deal sites on the net now. But some autozones have killer deals on oil right now for a $1 a quart.
There got nailed by the deal sites posting it so you can't really order online. But I had luck checking the local stores. My store had Kendal mobil 1 Castrol and some different types of ATF for a 1 buck a quarts. Seems to be different at every store but Kendal and Castrol seem to be very common.
only thing left was mobil one ep and Castrol synblend when I got there, picked up 60qts for 64 bucks with tax. 12, 5 qt jugs, each for 5 bucks, single qts where $1.
I don't think I will need oil for awhile.
Just bought 68 quarts of full synthetic. Looks like I'll be good to go for awhile. Thanks for the heads up!

I went to the local Auto Zone today after seeing this, some oils that were marked a buck really weren't. I guess I could have gave them a hard time but the local guy didn't have much to do with it. They had 10-30 Castrol Syn Blend oil for a buck, and Valvoline Syn trans fluid for a buck, I bought 17 bottles of the tranny fluid, but when they rang up the oil, it wouldn't let them, they made a couple of calls, kept trying to ring it up, and finally were told that sale was a mistake, it was really on sale for 6.99, for that price I didn't need any. I don't usually run that oil in anything but for a buck I would have. they had 23 bottles of it to. They had a few other oils marked at a buck, but were sold out on those.

So, when to the local Autozone today. Asked about the sale, as none of the oil was marked as on sale for a buck. Their response, "oh, yeah, Miguel bought all of it." Miguel is an employee at the store...., nice....

A call to corporate headquarters may help out with that. "I wanted to buy oil but couldn't because..."
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Actually, I did send an email to the customer service link on autozone.com. Said if that is the way sales at autozone work, I'll just stick with O'Reillys or the local Parts Source store. Should've mentioned Napa too.
