Advance Auto Parts

Maybe don’t put a customer on hold for 10 minutes two days in a row on different a days at different times. I gave up both times. I had about $ 200 worth of parts to check to see if they were in stock. I’ll go elsewhere.

My car needed a new battery badly. Like 6 months ago badly. I was told then by Grease Monkey that it was running low. Then 3 months later, I had my oil changed at WalMart and they told me the same thing. It’s not that I didn’t want to get it changed, it’s just I kept forgetting about it. So when my car was running very sluggishly the other day, I knew I needed to take care of this sooner rather than later.
After hearing the pricing of batteries from Walmart and a few others, I decided to shop around online. I found the best value for a battery on Advance Auto Parts website: it was about $ 30 cheaper than the rest, and it had good reviews. Additionally, I was able to purchase online and have the install it at the store for free within an hour of purchase. Sold.
The staff at this location was friendly and efficient. The gentleman (I forget his name) who installed my battery did it with a smile in the 90+ degree heat… I know I wouldn’t have been so pleasant and I bought him a Mountain Dew to thank him.
In general I prefer Advance Auto Parts to the other auto parts chains. Their pricing seems to be less expensive and they seem to offer more services as well. I’m am definitely a fan.
