Stacking Tips
Combine multiple discount types in a single transaction. These are the most effective stacking combinations at AutoZone.
Rewards + Weekly Deal + Manufacturer Rebate
AutoZone's best triple-stack opportunity is an oil change: buy qualifying oil and filter during a weekly deal, submit the manufacturer rebate, and earn AutoZone Rewards credits. A $50 oil and filter purchase can net $10-15 back between rebate and credits.
Loan-a-Tool + Parts Purchase
AutoZone's Loan-a-Tool program eliminates the need to buy or rent expensive specialty tools for one-time jobs. Combine with buying the required parts and earning Rewards credits on the purchase — completing a brake job, for example, for the cost of parts alone.
Duralast Lifetime Warranty + Competitive Pricing
Duralast brake pads, rotors, batteries, and other qualifying parts include a lifetime warranty. A $40 Duralast brake set that gets replaced free twice over 10 years is worth more than a $25 no-name part replaced at full cost each time.
Online Deal + In-Store Pickup
AutoZone.com frequently offers exclusive deals not available in-store. Order online at the lower price, pick up for free at your local AutoZone within 30 minutes — better price, no wait, no shipping cost.
Price Match Policy
AutoZone's price match guarantee lets you claim a lower price from qualifying competitors — both at the time of purchase and up to 14 days after. Knowing the rules can save you from overpaying on big-ticket items.
Competitor Price Match
AutoZone will match prices from major auto parts competitors on identical parts for the same vehicle.
In-Store and Online
Price match applies to both in-store and online purchases. Show the competitor's current price at checkout.
30-Day Price Guarantee
If an AutoZone item drops in price within 30 days of purchase, bring your receipt for a price adjustment.
