Mike: I could be a little off on the price. That is what I had been paying
up to now. Purchased at Kragen (Checker, Schuck's, Kragen, Murry's), they
usually offer a reduced in-store case-lot price plus a mail-in rebate. The
per-quart price may be up over $1 now but it still beats $5 per quart. I'll
know the next time Kragen does it. Their ad comes with the Sunday paper.
