Default Where to get crush washers?

So I've looked at autozone and the dealer, and they are $12 and $7 respectively. Any other places you fellas get them from where they aren't 10 times as expensive as they should be? Maybe an alternative to a crush washer?

That's what I did I first did my transmission fluid and it was leaking pretty bad so I drained it into a container, flipped the washer, and poured the fluid back in. No more leaks!

It's $10.30 with shipping

I suppose the trick is to just buy a bunch of them at a time. RockAuto.com also has them for cheap + shipping.

Exactly. Order two and you are already saving money, when compared to your local places.

They have copper washers at Autozone and every other car parts store I can think of. You get about 4 for three dollars. I use them on all my vehicles for oil and transmission. Never had a problem.
