But, you might have a Murray's by you - They are the same company.

We do, but its in Lansing....68 miles away. None here in Grand Rapids. It used to be near when diesel was >$3 a gallon. Now that it costs $22 to do a round trip its a bit steep. I can remember when it was $10!

I have bought shop towels for 89 cents a roll and a USA industries starter and alternator from them. They have very good prices. (good enough to warrant a drive there for such a part)

Does the 2930 qualify for the special price?

I have not checked my local Kragen, will do that tomorrow. The ad says that "filters up to $5.99 regular retail" are two for $7 -- the 2930 that fits the 617 is usually $11 or $12 so we may be stuck with the "alternate" price of "$2 off." That isn't much of a bargain.

Pep Boys have had "2 for $7" sales that do include the 2930. I picked up several earlier this year. They typically have four 2930s on the shelf and I buy all of them.

When you're buying the Fram 2930, look inside the box at the filter itself and make sure that there's a little painted "Made in Turkey" on the top. These filters have been found made in other countries and they aren't necessarily the same.

I once opened up a German filter (don't remember the brand) and indeed found it full of junk. Strange and disturbing.
