    wally world is normally cheaper on mobil one, thats where i normally buy it. but when i was at the one in north scottsdale last weekend i noticed the same thing. allmost none on the shelf. but they had a sign posted that said sorry for the shortage of mobil products, that thier refinerys had been hit in the storm, and there was a shortage. i have yet to check out autozone or any of the other discount auto parts places. glad we have 7 quarts on the shelf at my work!
