Title: Is this the right oil? If so its on special offer!
Post by: holepunch on March 21, 2011, 05:04:39 pm: Over the weekend I built up the courage to go to my local Asda to see if Castrol edge was on special. It wasnt but at £30 for four litres I thought I buy some anyway.

However can someone confirm its the right stuff?

Then when I got home I found that it featured in this months Costco voucher pack and it was even cheaper.

Post by: Top Cat on March 21, 2011, 09:18:27 pm: I am confused, that looks like a great price at Costco, did you get a coupon through the door or can Costco members just turn up and buy it. :happy2:

Post by: v2brett on March 21, 2011, 09:21:23 pm: i think you might need the coupon book TC we got 1 through late last week, it has got quite a few decent offers in it too

Yes they can. In my local one they don't care about coupons the till just does the right maths and that's it.

This hasn't always been the case though.
