“Am I any better off buying my shooting supplies at Dick’s, my auto supplies at Autozone or the rest of the stuff at Kmart, or Target, or wherever?”

In my case, I buy my auto stuff at Autozone instead of Walmart because Autozone is within walking distance of my house. Of course I know this doesn’t apply to most of us...

I actually have an Advance that's within walking distance (about a 20 minute walk).

Once I was doing the brakes our truck and my wife took the other car. No problem, I'll just walk up to Advance and get new rotors.

I discovered an odd property with brake rotors - they get progressively heavier the further you have to walk with one in each hand. I was sore for days afterwards.
