Thank you for the comparison it is helpful and shows it pays to shop around. You maybe a "broke dude" but I'm a cheap "old geezer". Why pay more for the same item particularly these days.

I couldn't agree more. I'm g;ad you took a look. I have a couple more comparisons coming...

I really hate it when Walmart is the low price leader. But the gallon is a pretty kickin' deal. Now, if only I used it ...

Out of curiosity, I looked at my local Tractor Supply (Walmart for rural people) and they show a gallon in stock for 30 bucks.  Maybe I should try it out.

That would certainly be the best price around. When I checked them it looks like they were only offering the 32oz for shipping. So, if you can pop in and grab one locally you're ahead of the game!

UPDATE: I didn't notice it was the compound. That's why it wasn't included in my comparison.

@AlZilla,

Just an FYI.  Pure Neatsfoot oil and Neatsfoot oil compound are two different things.  I only use the pure NFO.  JM2C,  Jim

Yes, I was aware of that. Did I make a mistake somewhere? It's certainly possible but I was on alert for it. I'm only interested in the 100% Pure and as I recall the compound is a much lower price. If I did make a mistake in my pricing, please let me know so I can correct it. I appreciate your feedback!

@BigDogPaul1962 that is a really good comparison of prices that you have done. Thank you for sharing that.  I usually go to Tractor Supply Co. and did not realize that  Walmart is often cheaper. Now, I will not feel comfortable buying anything without making a similar comparison! LOL.

Hey, thanks for your kind words. I'm going to post another one or two comparisons so I hope you find them.

Thanks for the list and comparison - what I don't see is state tax (I'll have to pay regardless of mail order or not...).  Local to me is an Agway store, TSC and a couple other garden/feed-type co-op stores that are similar to Agway.   Sometimes the pennies, sometimes dollars, premium is worth it because I've saved the P&H costs associated with mail order.  Knowing I'm "within range" of a price is always a consideration though so the list is very helpful.

Complete aside: Another consideration with shipping liquids is freezing - I live in New England and frozen product can be a thing with shipped goods.  My local Tandy store manager explained why she orders when to avoid frozen products - mostly dyes and the like.  Frozen buckles aren't a concern but some liquids are unusable once frozen...

Thank you for your feedback. I certainly enjoyed reading your comments and appreciate your candor.

The Sales Tax is the first item in my notes at the bottom. Different locations have different rates. That doesn't affect the price comparison at all.
Maybe I'm missing something but I've noticed some vendors charge me sales tax while others do not. I have not noticed a pattern to this, nor am I overly interested in finding out why. When I don't get charged any sales tax I just smile to myself.
