Yup. I've bought three gallons of Mobil 1 Turbodiesel Truck oil at $12.99. I even had them recheck the price because I thought it was either a mistake or the oil wasn't included in the loss leader. But that's it, the special is a loss leader. They have them every month but usually they aren't this significant for folks.
