Greetings!
Summer is just about over...the Minnesota State Fair opens tomorrow, Princeton Outlaw Grass Drags are this weekend, HayDays Grass Drags are in two weeks, and countless other events across the country. Soon it will be time to put away the summer toys (at least for those of us in the northern climates!) and get all of our winter toys ready. AMSOIL has the products you need for all of your "toys", lawn equipment, snowblowers, boats, etc. Just let us know if you need any product recommendations.
Sincerely, Mike and Linda Ford All Service Oil |

Shell and Valvoline Announce Finished Lubricant Price Increases
Shell (SOPUS Products) announced a finished lubricant price increase on August 5, 2011. Prices for select products will generally increase up to 5% with an effective date of September 19, 2011. Ashland also announced it will increase prices on Valvoline lubricants effective September 19, 2011 by up to 6%. [Full Story]
CITGO announced a price increase this afternoon for CITGO, Milemaster, Mystik, and Clarion lubricants of 4 to 6%. This increase is effective September 19, 2011.
Interestingly, the 110% you can pull from CITGO prior to the increase starts on orders from August 9. Marketers say this is unusual because it means if you ordered a week ago (hedging your bet), based on the letters marketers received, those orders from a week ago are going against your 110% allocation.
ConocoPhillipsalso announced a price increase this afternoon. ConocoPhillip's increase is effective September 16th and moves prices up 5 to 8%. |
