New, rockauto.com is probably cheapest. Then go to the local store and see if they will match rockauto.com's price. Some will, some will not. Alot of times it depends on who is behind the counter.

Although price match is a good idea, the only unfortunate thing is very few stores do it.

I just recently did my rear end:
Dealer:
-Brake lines
O'reilly:
-Drums
-Shoes
-Hardware
I want to say, give or take $135 for all.

V/r,
-Gray.

Im pretty sure Oreillys, Autozone, and Advance all price match. But they dont like to price match websites. I got the hook up at Oreillys, so dont really matter to me.

I agree, they sure do, but like you said not pricing with websites. And plus in the end it's almost a hassle!

If I need something right away, I'll go to NAPA or O'reilly where I have a hook up as well

If it's something I can wait for I'll definitely order from Advanced Auto Parts. It's usually easy to find promotion codes to get a pretty good discount with them. Their competition doesn't have anything like that with their websites.

...........::::::::::Orig. Final
Optima battery- $199 -> $135
Dynomax Exhaust- $189 -> $135
Magnaflow Cat- $134 -> $85

V/r,
-Gray.

I can see being on a budget for parts and wanting the least expensive option but when it comes to breaks that is not the case. Yea you can get the cheep pads and be just fine, but just remember that you get what you pay for. Cheep breaks are just that and not that they wont work but you may be back into your breaks in 6 months if you dont use good parts.
