Here's S & W's price list:

I believe the regular 15% airplane fuel is 15% nitro, 18% synthetic oil, and 2% castor. At about $550/drum, that's about $10 a gallon.
If you get 5-10 cases the prices are even lower.
The drum price is the lowest you can get, which makes sense, since you're not paying for plastic bottles and boxes, and a drum is the equivalent of almost 14 cases. The case prices (in bulk) are usually about $2-3/gallon higher than the drum prices.
