[Fot] Oil filters, consumables and other sundry supplies

[Bob Kramer]

"The troubled retailer will exit five Western states—Washington, Oregon,
California, Nevada, and New Mexico—entirely."  Texas is missing the cut!

I have an O'Riellys 1.7 miles from home, an Autozone, Advance and PartsPlus
within the next mile, and the big 3 have another set of stores within a
stones throw of each other 2 miles further away. The market is overly
saturated.
