50 Bucks at NAPA

[pelletman]

NAPA is giving me a coupon for $20 off $50 for my bday and I am a sucker for a deal. What would you buy for 50ish dollars at NAPA. Doesn't necessarily have to be a tool but that is probably the direction I am leaning. What is already a good value there? Thanks for your thoughts!

Anything I needed from Carlyle.

I would look at the Real Deals page of the Napa website.

Heck even a pair of base-model wiper blades is $40+ anymore. Seems like one of my cars always needs wiper blades. Boring, but helpful.

People laugh at me or think I'm crazy when I say this. I probably wouldn't even have tried them if it hadn't been an emergency situation but I swear by the wiper blades at family dollar. They're $7 and are actually some of the better wiper blades I've had in recent years.

Good info, thanks for sharing!

Oil and filter gets you you close to $50. A couple consumables (washer fluid, brake clean, paper towels) and you're there.
If there is a tool you have in mind why not? It is your bday.

NAPA used to have decent jack stands. Maybe put it toward a pair of those if needed.

There 7 ton jack stands are real nice if you need jack stands and if they're on sale...... I got mine for $100 but I think they're $200 or more regular price.

If I remember correctly it’s not good in store, online orders only.

How much do you order at a time

I'm not sure I would pay full price but Carlyle ratchets are pretty solid if you can catch a sale.

Agreed , there ain't any wiper blade worth +20$ , its just price gouging
Rockauto is another option

Chemicals and cleaners.
I like the red lable CRC Brakleen best.

My last order was 44 cans for $120. I should be good for quite a while!
