I haven't been to an auto parts store in awhile but I went the other day to buy a few things. While I was standing in line I noticed that antifreeze was $15/gallon! Even the cheap 50/50 was still $13/gallon!

When and what brought this about?

Our straight green antifreeze is only $9.49 a gallon. And the 50/50 is $10.49 :lol: It cracks me up when people buy the 50/50. I guess the convienence is more important :roll:

....and people say NAPA is the highest on everything 8)

last year when i had my old jeep cherokee, i had to replace the radiator, Autozone & Advance wanted $400-$500, Napa had the exact same part number and manufacturer for $98!

Oh its crazy how high fluids have gotten. Our NAPA oil (bottled by Valvoline) is $3.99 a quart :shock: Same price for standard DexIII transmission fluid
