Looks like a price mistake. My local ad shows 7 dollars off two chemical guy products. You need to go back and empty the store!

I want to, I want to reallly bad. Maybe I'm an idiot not to, but I'm at my local AAP all the time, they're good guys, I don't want to be that a hole and suddenly have them hate me. Feel pretty torn on this one. What's the concensus? Would you or would you not? If it were Walmart, it'd be a no brainer. Advance Auto is corporate, but it's also a small store where everybody knows my name, and that changes things for me.

Why be greedy? Your choice to respect the store far out lives the amount of product you can buy and watch it go bad on your shelves.

Was it a pre-printed sign? I'm wondering if all of them have this same sign?

Unless the clerk looked surprised when you checked out, maybe it wasn't a price mistake?

Also: might wanna black out your name on the receipt.

Wipe them out. They have sales all the time and they refuse to honor the price.

Yes, all the signs were pre-printed. Each sign was specific to each product as well, they weren't the kind that include multiple items on the same tag.

The clerk went over to and squinted at the sign three times, so definitely looked confused. His first resonse was that the sign said $7 off 2 items, which as another SDer noticed from the ad, was likely what it was intended to say. But after walking over to it and reading it three times, he conceded that it did indeed say 2/$7.

Yep, it must be a mis print on the sticker. As when they ring it up it take $7 off. I had the chance to get the hydrislick but didn't care to get it. I got two half gallons of honeydew for $7 and two interior cleaner for $7

Is this a store specific misprint or misprinted at every store?

Damn, I'd be all over that Ceramic Coating stuff.

I'm sure its not nowhere near as good as a real ceramic coat but I've got 2 sets of wheels and a used car that I'd like to slap something on. Would be worth a shot at that price.

Yeah, this deal is like "I found $20 in the Walmart parking lot". I do appreciate you taking the time to post it, though. I also appreciate that you exercised a little moderation in not cleaning out the store, especially if you frequent there. Chemical Guys must be on drugs if they expect to get that MSRP for their wax.

I know this thread is like a week old but there weren't any more recent threads. Does AAP still have coupon codes floating around or what? The 15% that was on their own banner didn't work and not seeing any on this site and the other site I would get them from is shut down as far as I can tell. Need a battery and would be nice to get 25% off (most my size are around $200 now!). The exide batteries at HD are actually pretty decent and reasonably priced. Unfortunately none of the nearby ones carry batteries (I'm talking like a 1.5 hr drive LOL).
