Didn't Dollar General get caught selling non-rated non-detergent oil, aka dangerous garbage, just last year or so? I would be weary of them.

And yes Supertech is proven good quality oil.

I believe that PQIA exposed at least one of those discount dollar store-type entities for having uncertified, potentially dangerous oil, on their shelves. I think a few of those products even had a fake API type label on their bottles. Probably deep fryer oil bottled up, lol. Pretty sure at least one of the oils was a base crude oil with no additives at all. Again, as cheaply as Walmart sells great oil for, why would one take the risk?
