Oil Online

Would you buy oil online, or would the shipping cost put you off?  I'm assuming it would cost a fair amount to ship given the weight.

I see that Canadian Tire do pay and pick up, what is the benefit of this over just going in and buying it?  Does anyone on here order this way?


Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

I buy Amsoil online.   It's cheaper shipped to my door for the good stuff,  than the cheap stuff at ctc.   Win win

Yeah check out their website.  I ordered 3 cases last time.  0w-20 synthetic for my Lexus LX was cheaper than crap synth at crappy tire and that included shipping to my door.

I signed up as a dealer.  It's funny, add $20 to the cart to become a dealer and saved like $100 on the order.

Yeah, become an AMSOIL dealer - it's the best deal on oil, period.  One advantage for us here is that Edmonton is a warehouse location so I just pick up there.

Yep...same here. I'm am Amsoil dealer too. Have shipped oil to several members here.

As Wing points out, they have crazy good pricing on their "OEM" oil line.
