Welcome to the forum..

For September, Advance has a deal on Monroe shocks, buy 3 and get the 4th shock free, but it's after a mail-in rebate. Some have posted and said they found good deals on the Reflex shock on Amazon.com.

a lot of places are having sales try looking on ebay,amazon,auto zone,napa,advanced,summit,jcwitney,4wd. I also need shocks too so ill be looking for some. I let you know if I find any good deals.

EDIT: I found them on advanced website and found a 40.00 coupon so instead of getting 4 for 200 and some its only 167.00 and for 2 its 63.00

The Monroe Reflex really are worth it. They come with a lifetime garuntee as well so if you plan on keeping it for a while its a good deal.

I bought mine from Napa so I probably paid more then some, but then there is no shipping and I don't have to wait for them...

I got my Reflex shocks at Napa too. Right now both Advance and Pep Boys are advertising the buy any 3 Monroe shocks and get the 4th shock free by mail in rebate. I don't know if Autozone is advertising it but the rebate is from Monroe, so you can check their web site for the rebate info and form to mail in.
