2 Stroke Oil - Have to be 18? - 11/16/16 02:34 AM
Anyone ever heard of this? I went to buy premium plus from Academy this evening and went to checkout and the guy asked for my ID and said he couldn't sell it to me and you had to be 18...I'm 17. I've bought the same oil from the same academy multiple times and I've never heard of this rule..is it something new?

Ask them about huffing gasoline instead.
If we remove warning labels the problems will sort theirselves out.
Kids now days are huffing it.

I had a Jon boat that I wanted to camo when I was 14 or so, they wouldn't sell me the paint. My dad was mad but still went and got it for me after a long day of work. Walmart 16 years ago, I couldn't imagine being under 18 now

You should have went to another cashier, the one you had was an idiot.

That's a new one to me. 30 years in the firefighter/paramedic business and I thought I was well versed in "household drugs". Huffing gasoline and paint has been a problem for ever. 2 cycle oil? New one to me.
I'm pretty sure the kids on tv are smokin it!! they should increase the age to 25!!!!!

Trump can fix that, again toooooo much BS / government in life today .......
Yeah that sounds strange. I'm 19 now but bought oil more times than I could count when younger. Somebody trying to do their job too well.
