G-Oil Synthetic Motor Oil (5w-30) FAR 1qt and 5qt EXTENDED thru 05/06/12

HERE WE GO AGAIN AGAIN

5qt. G-Oil Synthetic Motor Oil (5w-30) FAR $26 Rebate EXTENDED thru 05/06/12 at WalMart

Green Earth Technologies is offering a $26 mail-in rebate when you purchase 5qt. of G-Oil Synthetic Motor Oil at WalMart. Click here G-Oil Rebate Form & print your rebate. Offer is valid thru May 6, 2012.

Note, after clicking "Print Limited Time Mail-in Rebate Offer", each rebate is generated with a unique certificate ID and can only be printed once.

Only available at WalMart and only select WM's at that. Use the store checker on G-Oil's website to see which local WM's should stock it. Can also look up the G-Oil on WMs website and check availability (I picked up some this weekend for the last rebate in a store that was showing out of stock online but had plenty when I looked in the store, so you never know)

Is anyone else getting paranoid? I have participated in about 5 of these offers so far and have been paid on 4 of them (I just submitted a claim that ended 4/22/12). Now that they are offering back to back rebates so close apart is getting me nervous.

As Per G-Oils Website:

Due to Popular Demand:The 5Qt Rebate has been EXTENDED for purchases.
OLD DATES: 4/1/12 through 4/22/12
NEW DATES: 4/1/12 through 5/6/12

A New Rebate for the 1 Qt Bottle of G-OIL has been added for purchases good from 4/22/12 through 5/6/12

#6 is still pending, but in for #7!

They do this every month. How can they afford to do this every month?

My WalMart doesn't have this, I just get the WalMart full syn for $20. If they had this, I might try it.

It either the you want 1 quart of the oil or the 1-5qt jug of the product.

I would ran don't walk to WalMart.. they always sold out and I get the say BS. "we have on order and it should be here by this day"

Thanks didn't notice the difference

Great for 95% of car drivers who change oil under 10k miles. It's a no-brainer when it's free or $5 and it's American.

For those questions about the rebate. You can turn in only one rebate per promotion. That link takes you to two promotions: GOIL Earth Day and GOIL Earth Month Celebration. You can turn in one of each. Yes they had several rebates. As long as you keep track of which promotions you already turned in you'll get the rebate just fine. I eventually learned this after my 5th GOIL rebate.

By the way, they changed (at least from what I remember) their rebate system. You can track it online now.

Keep buying. As long as WalMart knows that this stuff is flying off their shelves and they can't keep it in stock, they'll keep buying more from GOil. Which is all GOIL wants... WalMart buying more from them.

My last one took almost 11 weeks to get the check. Nervous...yes, but I will play the game.

Beware!

This is not a new promotion.

The rebate form has new purchase dates, but the promotion number is the same as the previous one (GT12-8421).

where do you find the rebate number? I don't see it on the form anywhere....

The promotion name and number is the same as the previous offer.

Kaparosky said:   All those doing this rebate, do you change the oil on your own?

I do change my car's oil. It's a hassle and takes longer than what would happen if I were to take it to a car dealer or a car shop (read: not having lift machinery), but worth it knowing what goes in (specific oil, oil filter, washer) and out (color of oil, any debris, etc...) and how the work is done. It's easy once you do it a few times...

They get more investors to fund their business.

I buy the oil each time the rebate renews. I've got 2 rebates
that haven't been paid but the timeframe between mailing
and receiving check has stayed about the same.

After sign up for the e-mail, the link in the e-mail took me back to the same page, which still no PDF.

The link in the first post has extra URL crap in it. Happened to me. Go through this link: http://www.getg.com/campaigns/request.php?cID=getg120422

My experience with time expended differs. Doing it myself in my yard saves at least an hour over driving somewhere and waiting my turn...between the saved time, the saved money, and never having to worry about an inattentive teenager or overscheduled expert forgetting to put my drain plug back in properly, it's a huge win.

good deal, not easily accessible to the NYC metro area. The nearest WalMart carrying this is in Farmingdale

gobsrsobs said:   I picked up 5 Qrt from WalMart and I can't pull UPC symbol out of it. The whole lable and the UPC Code is a screen print on one of its side. The MIR form clearly says to cut the UPC code on the back of the can. I am going to return to WalMart rightnow.

I think others have mentioned using a hair dryer on the UPC code to lift it off from the jug.

Also I just pay my mechanic $10 to change the oil and I give him the oil and filter. Otherwise if I don't need anything fixed, I might go to quickie oil change place and wait til next time. Then again, I usually go between 5-8k between oil changes, I alternate between synthetic and synthetic blend.

changing oil is a lost art...more people should do it themselves

i love changing my own oil. used oil these days is also a commodity for reusing in Diesel engines, or the occasional tire fire.

A local shop sends out 15 dollar oil change coupons like clock work. it's their express lube so I am in and out in 15 minutes or so and I get to watch.

I tend to change my oil once a month at the 5-6K mark.

You drive 5-6k a month?

yup. in a 3/4 ton V8 gas guzzler..

(I can't use a smaller truck.. I need the room/payload for my tools)

Just bought a 1 QT and a 5 QT at my local Wal-Mart. The UPCs are kinda hard to get off. If you have a hair dryer handy, it works wonders. If you don't, good luck on not tearing the crap out of them cause they are on very well.

Got the $26 check the other day. Check date is 07/25/12
