AutoZone

I went here last weekend just looking for some random things for my car. Needless to say I was surprised by how friendly and helpful the employee’s here were. I was one of two customers in here at this time and after helping the guy who was there before me, the one employee made it a point to come over to me and make sure I was finding everything okay. I’ve never had issues at auto parts stores but I have never had an employee go out of their way to help me find things. I am not a gear head and have no idea about cars, I can do a decent amount of repairs on my own but most auto part stores are setup for the experienced/​knowledgeable car tinkerer and it was nice to not feel like a complete idiot.
On top of helping me find what I was looking for and for answering some car questions when it came time to check out he asked if I was military. They give a 10% discount to military and I had no idea. I usually ask everywhere I go because of that but rarely am I ever offered the discount.

I went to Auto Zone yesterday because one of my main headlights in my Jetta went out. I was so afraid that I would have to go to the dealer, and any little thing that is wrong with my Volkswagen costs a FORTUNE to fix. Well I don’t really know anything about cars, let alone picking the right light bulb and installing it myself. I walked in and was walking up and down the aisle looking, and one of the employees came up and helped me out. He not only walked out to my car to look at it (in 6 degree weather), but he got me the right bulb (at a much greater price than I expected) and then he installed it for me at no cost. Maybe its part of their job, but it was REALLY nice of him, and he was very professional and went out of his way to truly help me. THANK YOU, SIR!!!
