here in ohio biglots got the stock from eckerds when they went under.
they are trying to unload the old stock and are giving 70% off the marked price.
on a lot of stuff this is no big deal as the prices are inflated anyway.
but i found a bunch of 2 packs of energizer e2 123 for 5.19
that comes to a bit over 0.75/cell.
forget the huber heights oh store as i cleaned them out.
they also have panasonic 123 at 3.99/2 no discount

They had closeout duracell 123 cells for $2.00 at one of the BigLots here and I picked up a 3 pack of panasonic plus 9v alkaline cells dated 2006 for $2.50. There were also other outdated/nearly outdated batteries of sorts for 40-50 cents a cell, energizer e2 etc. I had to look around to find the markdown area in the store it was in an obscure place hidden on the end of shelves in the bathroom/towel etc area.

I used to use 15w50 on my SVO mustang. It had a turbo 4 cyl and the higher numbers made for less oil usage, since it doesn't get very cold here the 15w figure was fine. If you want a bunch you may consider buying them from places like batterystation.com. they have a $1.00 each price to CPF members.
