I was just looking at those at Wal-Mart yesterday, as a matter of
fact. What actually spawned this whole issue for me is that my
garbage company recently started accepting used motor oil and filters
along with the regular curbside recycling. Before that, it wasn't
really worth the time since I still had to make a trip to get rid of
the oil.

Definitely going to pick up a jug and an extra quart or two next time
I'm there.
