^Beat me to it. I was gonna post that but forgot.


Guess where I went today to get a hose for dad's truck? Not AutoZone.
I plan on using O'reilly's now.

Sadly, this isn't the first time people who have done the right thing have been fired for violating company policy....

The O'reilly's I went to is the only autoparts store other than autozone that's NOT in the ghetto. There is a Napa in the next town, but I was on the website and they didn't have any stock at that store, so I don't think they exist anymore as a Napa. lol

Autozone is far more "Walmart" in my opinion than Advance... I never shopped there anyway.

I'm with jkeaton, Napa is too expensive for a majority of their parts. And while they say you get what you pay for, that's not always true. I think a lot of Napa is just paying for a name, like Michelin Tires......

I like AutoZone because of their rewards card, when I had to replace my water pump I got $20 of stuff for free with the card....

This ^^ is why I liked autozone. I was able to do the exact same thing. Got a water pump for my dakota for like $5 using the rewards card. Half the time I go into Oreillys and ask for something for the mustang, camaro or Ram they tell me they don't have it and do not even offer to find out if there is a replacement, or maybe have it at another store, warehouse, etc. They are usually too busy talking to their ricer friends.

I use a combination of both AZ and AAP. I like the rewards card that AZ has, usually get money off my big parts orders, which is nice... Napa and Carquests in my area never have stocked parts for my Ram... Maybe they are geared more towards all the ricers in the area...

I am using O'reilly's now because their site is setup decently. That really chaps my *** when you have a business with a crappy site.
