And I make a point of buying stuff there regularly for reasons similar to what you wrote. No other local stores carry G-05 coolant, even if it is a few bucks more than normal Prestone. Last week they let me look through their boxes of tiny light bulbs so I could find something similar to the burned out bulb in my 9000's climate control unit (one from a Toyota was adaptable). Etc, etc, etc.
Thankfully, there are still a few stores like this around - but two big chain auto parts stores recently opened a few miles away........
