AutoZone

I only gave it 2 stars because of «security». I should have known to turn right back around when I walked in to see a customer yelling at the employer about the wrong product she gave him. Instead of just giving him his refund she continued to argue with him that she was right. So after about 10 minutes of arguing she finally got someone else to help me. So I went for a headlight. A simple headlight. The guy checked his computer and insisted that I had the correct headlight. I asked if they place it in the car. He said he will go out and check if he could. He open up my hood and proceeded to touch many wires then stated he was not a mechanic so the best option would be for me to go to a shop. Then why did you open up a hood in the first place? Fast forward to the shop. They told me it was not the right bulb! They graciously provided me the correct bulb for a lesser price. Anyway I wouldn’t be back to this AutoZone again.

Fairly pricey store, although I do like the quality of autozone. I went in for windshield wiper blades and wasn’t happy with the price selection (actually got a cheaper rate at the car dealership during an oil change). Still, very professional staff, nice location, and a clean store that looks well kept up. Nice store in that aspect, just a little pricey.

When I left my house this morning, I couldn’t remember whether I hated AutoZone, or the other auto parts store down the street. As soon as I walked into AutoZone, I realized I had made the wrong choice, but I was late for work already, and only needed a couple of things, so I didn’t turn and run. My mistake.
I give the store two stars because it’s clean, and products are well organized and easy to find. The problem is the guy behind the counter. Last time I was in for a bulb for my turn signal. I find it, bring it up to the counter, only to be asked «Are you sure you have the right one?» Well, gosh, no, I’m not sure, because I’m retarded and can’t read a catalogue, but, thanks. He then spent 10 minutes trying to sell me bulb grease that I repeatedly told him I did not want, need, or wish to pay for.
Today, same experience. After waiting in line for 10 minutes to make my purchase, I was much relieved to find that the other associate was up when my time came. But, there is apparently no stopping super salesman, he was determined that I was going to buy 2 rolls of shop towels for only five dollars. I said «No, thank you,» three times before being asked, «What about for those flowers on your chest?» Really? You want to sell me shop towels to clean my tattoos? Alas, I still don’t need them. His response, «C’mon, Flowers.“Oh, an endearing nickname from a creep. I needed those towels to wash the slime off.
I understand pushing sales, maybe you work on commission. I guess that 25 cents must be worth losing a customer. I’m affixing a note to my dashboard that says GO TO O’REILLY’S!

Not sure all Autozone’s are the same, because some of the ones I have been in before were not as helpful as this location.
I had to replace my windshield wipers. Seriously. They were so bad you could hardly see and with Atlanta becoming like Seattle with all the rain, I find myself using my wipers more than I want.
So for a $ 18 purchase, the gentleman told me he’ll come outside to help me. Now, I was just going to go home and do it myself. It would have probably taken me an hour to figure out how to remove the old ones and an hour to put the new ones on. But after I paid, he just walked outside with me, popped off the old blades, put the new ones on and thanked me – yes he thanked me for coming. I returned the thanks and drove home.
He could not have been anymore helpful. I just stood there. It nice that they do this type of stuff, cause it makes me want to return when I need something.
