I'm 95% sure that the AAP house brand is Havoline if anybody is interested.

I know a few years ago that Walmarts Supertech conventional was Quaker State and their filters were fram economy filters (same as alot of part houses cheapo filters). They may have switched vendors in the last 5 years or so.

O'rielley's house brand was Quaker State as well (this is what i was told by their commercial vendor anyway) about 4-5 years ago as well.

I just thought I would throw this in there because alot of people seem aprehensive about house brand oils...
