I want to correct the price I listed in post #11. I said $13.00. No, one jug of previously ~ $7.80 DEF cost the princely sum of $13.98. That is close enough to 100% increase to just call it that.

Walmart last Spring was as low as $6.88, currently $13.88 in FL. Way more than the "current" 8.5% inflation. Seems like price gouging at it's finest and not word is being said by anybody.

My local Walmart has Blue DEF (2.5 gallon) for $9.88.
My question: The date on the cubes is 5/9/21. Is the product still good?

I have used a lot of Walmart DEF and have never had a problem. Used it in two different Dodge Pickups, one Winnebago Ellipse and now in the Entegra Aspire.
WM has always been $3-$5 cheaper then the name brands and competitive with pump DEF. My last Walmart DEF was $9.98, but I put the last three jugs into the coach this morning. Guess I'll find out the new price soon!

Sorry to appear so uninformed but I have yet to purchase Blue DEF that has the best before date on it, that I could find. I usually purchase from Sam's club when they have it. Will someone enlighten me on where they find the best before date on this stuff. I just purchased 2 containers from Sam's in Mishawaka, IN and I have not looked at that yet, maybe it will be a first.
Blue DEF uses "reverse Julian dating" to make it very confusing. Every time I get ready to but it I refresh my memory on how it works, I even made a handy cheat sheet and took a picture of it so it's in my phone. Here's a thread on the Ram forum that explains it: https://www.ram1500diesel.com/thread...%205%2C%202020. He does make it more confusing telling you to look up the Julian calendars but it is easier to just do the subtraction in your head or on a calculator then divide the resuly by 30 and you'll have the month of manufacture.
