Pep Boys’ “Top 10 Holiday Must-Haves” for 2013
Perfect for everyone on your holiday gift-giving list—or keep for yourself!
Philadelphia (November 4, 2013) – With the 2013 holiday season upon us, The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack
(NYSE: "PBY"), the nation's leading automotive aftermarket service and retail chain, presents the Top 10 Holiday
Must-Haves for you to give as gifts this year—or keep for yourself!
For holiday travelers hitting the roads, two essential must-haves include the Bell Automotive 55-Piece
Emergency Kit, featuring an 8-foot Booster Cable, 2-in-1 Screwdriver, Cable Ties, Flashlight with “D”-batteries,
24-inch Tie Down and First Aid Kit, and the Performance 600 Amp Jump Starter to jump a vehicle’s battery or
inflate tires. Also, for those that just can’t leave home without it, the Voyager Roof Top Cargo Carrier is a
lightweight option providing additional storage with a sturdy covering.
The “Garage DIYers” must-haves include both the Goodyear 24V Cordless Impact Wrench, a heavy duty cordless
half-inch drive impact wrench that delivers maximum torque, and the Meguiar’s Dual Action Polisher, which
attaches to most household drills. Plus, for the times when a “lift” is needed, (and we don’t mean a “ride”), the
Big Red 2-Ton Trolley Jack offers versatility and provides professional results plus lifting applications and wheels
for portability.
For those on your gift-giving list who are “all about appearances,” their desire for both style and function will be
satisfied with Pep Boys’ wide variety of Wheels—a great way to make an impression. Also, there’s the
Plasticolor Hello Kitty Core Utility Mat –one of many character accessory items available for drivers to make
their vehicles truly one-of-a-kind.
Another holiday value item, for use by the passengers in your vehicle, is the colorful Hype Eclipse Stereo Handsfree Headphones (available in blue and pink), which has an answer button with mic and is compatible with most
35mm jack devices. Rounding out the Top 10 Holiday Must-Haves is something to satisfy the “kid” in all of us,
the Razor USA Dirt Rocket MX350 Electric Bike, which is a scaled down, electric-powered motocross bike which
goes up to 14 MPH (for ages 13+).
