Outside of a restaurant who needs 101 oz. of Olive Oil at one time and how long would it take to use it all ? George, are you off your medicine? ---

That’s pretty normal price per ounce, just lots of ounces. How do you keep it from going rancid? ---

Yeah, the “1.5L” had me thinking some special EVOO. 101 oz=2.99L ---

> [@texases](#): > > That’s pretty normal price per ounce, just lots of ounces. How do you keep it from going rancid? On my most recent purchase, around Thanksgiving, it was $29. I routinely paid less than $20 for the same product before Covid. I have a hard time understanding the poster’s immense interest in olive oil … lol … but I’ll address your rancidity question: It never has gone bad. I use quite a bit of olive oil, one can generally lasts about 4 months. I don’t use butter at all, so olive oil is my butter substitute. I store it at room temperature, sealed off from air intrusion as best I can ---

I would think Sam’s, Costco, and BJs would have same prices in the contiguous 48 states. Sam’s EVOO is 32.98, regular OO is 29.98. Back to washer fluid, top mine off weekly when I check the oil. I top it off **before** an oil change, they would fill it with water. I use the “bug” formula from rain-x. ---

> [@Purebred](#): > > I would think Sam’s, Costco, and BJs would have same prices in the contiguous 48 states. Not necessarily. If you take a close look at the monthly sales flyer for Costco, almost all of the sale items are listed as “X dollars off”, rather than a specific price. With a few sale items, they will explicitly state the price, but most of their sale items only list the amount of the discount. I can tell you for sure that stores like Lowe’s and Home Depot vary their prices from one area to another. Several years ago, I bought a couple of tomato cages at the Lowe’s nearest to my house. A few days later, I realized that I needed an additional tomato cage, and another Lowe’s store ~20 miles away charged ~15% less for the same item. ---

Yes, I hate those ads that only state X dollars off. Doubt Sam’s would add $30 to EVOO shipped to California. ---

Well, since we have all gone down the rabbit hole anyway… Everyone (willing to participate , key word(s)) should pick a product and post a screen shot of their whatever store to see if prices are the same or different across the country… ---

> [@VDCdriver](#): > > Not necessarily. If you take a close look at the monthly sales flyer for Costco, almost all of the sale items are listed as “X dollars off”, +1 IMO national stores are more likely to charge similar markup above the lease costs. Regular gas at the COSTCO I use is $3.39/gal while just 15 miles south it’s $3.35/gal. ---

> [@jtsanders](#): > > Regular gas at the COSTCO I use is $3.39/gal while just 15 miles south it’s $3.35/gal. Their gas prices do vary, within the space of just a few miles, but one of their gas station managers explained this to me a few years ago. Every morning, they do a survey of gas prices in the same zip code, and then they set their price 1 cent lower than the cheapest competitor’s station. When you go to a Costco gas station just a few miles away (but in a different zip code), the price could be slightly lower or slightly higher–depending on competitors’ pricing in that other zip code. ---

Every morning, they do a survey of gas prices in the same zip code, and then they set their price 1 cent lower than the cheapest competitor’s station Closest BJ’s gas to me is in MA, and it’s more expensive then Irving in NH - probably be cause of the higher gas tax in MA. There are several reasons why gas stations prices are different from station to station. Even stations in the same zip-code. Stations right off the highway will have a higher price than the same station 2 miles away in the same town. ---

Stations right off the highway will have a higher price than the same station 2 miles away in the same town. All true, but if the local Costco gas station manager is on his toes, his station will _always_ be one cent cheaper than all of the other stations in his zip code. Of course, a different zip code could be only 1/4 mile away, but company policy only extends to beating every other station in the _same_ zip code.
