Don't you mean "China Tire"? That store is a waste of realstate to even think you are going to get a good product for a car.... I have heard some bad horror stories from their auto section.... they make more money importing cheap waffle irons than anything else, so why try to compete with real parts stores.... all i will buy from the auto section is oil, light bulbs and belts.
That is true...and, sadly, they were one of the best many years ago...they even used to offer rebuilt engines (although not sure of the quality)...my Dad used to use their Lube Pit quite a bit...and he'd take us there on weekends to go "Wishing"...meaning we'd walk through the aisles and wish we could have the shiny new bike, gun (yes, they used to sell guns too), or fishing rod...
You must have a napa owned by a different company, the parts at the napas by me are at least 20% more expensive and the stuff is still made in china.
I will have to check their signage again...could be they are affiliated with NAPA but don't use the actual name...I know I saw that somewhere either in the store or on their sign...
But, so far, every part I've purchased from them has been at least 10 to 50% cheaper than Canadian Tire...
