Where do you guys get your spark plugs?

Tired of paying $78 for 4 BUR9EQP at my local parts store. Where is the best deal?

I really mean... The BEST.

Rockauto. Beats what you paid for only 4 by a huge margin.

There's no RockAuto in Canada.

Yes, stock trailing plugs.

Shipping to Canada is $31, which ruins the deal.

My local ADVANCE AUTO carries them... 9's and 7's. Normally ~$35 but I think I got them for ~ $30 with my commercial account. Not sure why they'd be so pricey in Canada.

$78 is a price better than commercial accounts. That is sad.

Don't know if this will help in Canada, but it does here.

Advance Auto almost ALWAYS has online coupons running, many times for 30% off. Best part is you don't have to ship them, you can do in-store pickup and it will show which stores have them.

So, I just recently got a set of 4 BUR9EQP's for $26 out the door. And, they had 2 stores in my area with them in stock. By the time I got there they had the order pulled, I just signed a pickup ticket and headed out.

I've been needing daily driver parts recently, and have been using that online coupon extensively, saved a ton.

Platinums are a waste. Just buy non platinums for $5 a plug and change them out with every oil change.
