Good Parts Discount
I was messing around with the CSK parts site looking for rolling tool tray. I decided to look up small block Chevy motor mounts. You can order and pay on-line $3.19/each. If you walk in off the street you pay $5.00/each. That is a significant discount. I will checking all my standard parts this way for now.
Heater core was $29.99 vs. $33.00 at the counter. I will take the discount whenever I can get it. If you spend $50...shipping is free.

Re: Good Parts Discount
If you give them the price from a competitor that's cheaper they beat it by five percent also.

Re: Good Parts Discount
I like Advance much better than Autozone. They used to be called Discount Auto Parts around here.

Re: Good Parts Discount
The little old lady at Advance Auto knows more than the young guys at Autozone up the street from my house in Manassas.

Re: Good Parts Discount
We have checkers about every 10 blocks here in Utah...and an Autozone or PepBoys sprinkled in between. Oh yeah...and a few NAPAs altogether.
The help all depends on which one you go to. Some dummies and some good ones in each one. The CSK online is actually a different company than the stores....whole different CEO/buyers etc. Most companies do it that way...just like Best Buy, Compusa and the bunch.
