Where the heck can I get some plugs?

Alright I drive an 84 -se that is in need of some new spark plugs. I went to Napa, Partsource, and Crappy tire, the common places, And all of the them told me to go to the other place.

Where can I buy some NGK's?

I live in Edmonton.

I get mine from the dealer (ie Mazda). They're cheaper than the parts stores and always have them in stock. At least that's generally the case in Ontario.

Now that's funny simultaneous postings with the same advice.

I was just hoping to be able to pay less of a price.

I found mine at Parts Unlimited in Calgary (403-273-7370).

I was in there and asked if they had NGK plugs. She punched the number in the computer and said "Wow. Do you know how much those cost?" I said "about ten bucks". I ended up paying about $10 each. I also got the last 4 they had in their warehouse.

Update: They did have to bring them in from the warehouse for me. They didn't have them in the building.

Let me re-phrase. My local NAPA doesn't stock them, but can order them... at least used to. I buy from the dealer now. It's cheaper (with Club discounts)...

it's beginning to seem that this "spark plug" thread pops up every few weeks...

if you do a search of the Canadian Section, you will find all the past threads, with all the same advice

anyways, another place to get plugs is www.clubplug.net
only thing is you have to buy a minimum of 8 plugs or something...and after shipping it's about the same as the dealership....
but at least you don't have to get off your *** and they ship from Canada

Found some earlier today at another NAPA, though they had to pull them from the warehouse.

Thanks for all the help.

you can get cheap plugs for $2.50 each, the NGK's seem to go for about $13/pair where I'm at.. so like $26 for four
