cheapest place for oils/fluids?

so ok i bought a 99 blazer to drive to texas, got it for $2500, normally they run roughly $3500 so thats cool, has a few minor things up like plug wires.

but then my plans changed and i am not driving to texas any more and i am rather not happy with the blazer, just not really a fan of it is all and well the whole reason i got it was to move my fiance since its got a bit more room, so i am going to do some of the things it needs and sell it unless it grows on me.

thats the short story, the rest is it needs all fluids done amongst other things. like everything, mabe not power steering or windsheild fluid but pretty much nothings been done except standard oil and i think the tranny once or twice in 174k mi

so i need like 2 cases of ATF, Case of 5/30, 4 quarts of GL4 amongst other things and i was wondering if any one knew the cheapest place to get this stuff. american car, doesent need the highest quality stuff.

I feel like Napa is really cheap with their brand of oils/fluids.

umm, full synthetic is kinda wasted on such a thing, a gallon is only 4 quarts though.

They also sell chevron diesel oil for about $1.50 a quart. I ran it in my 52 *****'s and it's still kicking.

Again, I think napa is around $2 a quart for 10W-30. Somewhere around that price.
