The automotive and restoration sales/coupon codes are startin' to roll into my inbox, so I'll post any decent ones in this thread. I'll be updating as new ones appear during the week, and include any time limitations with them. I'll only post codes from businesses with whom I've actually dealt and had good results, rather than every link that lands in my inbox.
So, without further ado...
Starting with a Canuck joint for all you north-of-the-border types, we have PG Classic. Sales code "SAVE25" gets you that percent discount. "3 Days Only" but doesn't specify the days; it came today and appears to be good through the 23rd. The e-mail also said, "From November 27 - 30 PG Classic's Deal Center will be open where you can find hundreds of select items on discount for up to 40% off!" so there's that. I've never had a problem with PG, but shipping can be a bit dear for US customers (although generally lower than I've expected).
Next up is, of course, Year One--where every third day is Black Friday. Sales code "FINDIT" nets you 30% off until midnight Monday, which helps to offset their truly atrocious shipping. Best bet here is to call and use this "internet order only" code, then complain about the shipping price being too high. They'll lower it if you threaten to cancel; it's a trick as old as Year One itself. Shipping costs aside, they still have some of the best customer service in the industry.
Not so much for specific auto parts, but sort of a mini-Grainger without the exoribant pricing, Zoro has become a good resource for me. Their site is a tad clunky but far more useful than Year One's (the worst-case scenario). Spend some time and you'll get a feel for just how much they've got to offer. I've bought everything from concrete anchors to boost-control valves to power tools from them, and their customer care is exceptional. (they shipped me a 65lb, $1,000 Wilton vise Next Day Air because UPS managed to break the first one--at no charge to me). Right now they've got Metabo, Makita, Milwaukee, Bosch and Williams tools on sale through December 31st, as well as items by Crescent/JOBOX. No sales code necessary, orders over $75 always ship for free (at least in the US), and they ship quickly. Get on their mailing list for sales, and a couple of times a month you'll get a 20-30% off coupon code good for one order, usually with max value way beyond what you're planning to spend--highest one I've seen was "maximum savings of $4,000" which would've been on a $16,000 order. Their clearance items are often insanely cheap, too--they had a 385,000 BTU Dayton gas unit heater (think Modine) on sale this summer for around $450 with free shipping.
There will be more; I got a "threatening" e-mail from Racetronix today too (reasonalbly-price high-perf fuel system parts).
Feel free to respond with any worthy codes or sales you might happen to get.
