THE PEP BOYS - MANNY, MOE & JACK AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The consolidated balance sheet as of July 29, 1995, the consolidated
statements of earnings for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended
July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 and the condensed consolidated statements of
cash flows for the twenty-six week periods ended July 29, 1995 and July 30,
1994 have been prepared by the Company without audit.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (which included only normal recurring adjustments
) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations
and cash flows at July 29, 1995 and for all periods presented have been made.


Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested that these
condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's January 28,
1995 annual report to shareholders.  The results of operations for the
thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended July 29, 1995 are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full year. 


NOTE 2. Merchandise Inventories

Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower of cost (last-in, first-out)
or market.  If the first-in, first-out method of valuing inventories had been
used by the Company, inventories would have been approximately $15,319,000
higher at July 29, 1995 and January 28, 1995.

Thirteen Weeks Ended July 29, 1995 vs. Thirteen Weeks Ended July 30, 1994
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total revenues for the second quarter increased 11% due to a higher store
count (453 at July 29, 1995 compared with 395 at July 30, 1994) coupled with
a 1% increase in comparable store revenues (revenues generated by stores in
operation during the same months of each period).  Comparable store
merchandise sales decreased 1% while comparable service revenue increased 9%.

Gross profit from merchandise sales increased, as a percentage of merchandise
sales, due primarily to higher merchandise margins offset, in part, by an
increase in store occupancy costs.

Gross profit from service revenue increased, as a percentage of service
revenue, due primarily to lower service employee benefits costs. 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased, as a percentage of
total revenues, due primarily to an increase in store expenses.

The 27% increase in interest expense was due primarily to higher debt levels
coupled with higher interest rates.

The 7% increase in net earnings before the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle in 1995 as compared with 1994, was due primarily to
increases in gross profit from merchandise sales and gross profit from
service revenue, as a percentage of related sales and revenues, offset, in
part, by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, as a
percentage of total revenues, and higher interest expense.

Twenty-six Weeks Ended July 29, 1995 vs. Twenty-six Weeks Ended July 30, 1994
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total revenues for the first half increased 9% due to a higher store count
(453 at July 29, 1995 compared with 395 at July 30, 1994) while comparable
store revenues decreased 1%. Comparable store merchandise sales decreased 2%
while comparable service revenue increased 6%.

Gross profit from merchandise sales increased, as a percentage of merchandise
sales, due primarily to higher merchandise margins offset, in part, by an
increase in store occupancy costs.

Gross profit from service revenue increased, as a percentage of service
revenue, due primarily to a decrease in service employee benefits costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased, as a percentage of
total revenues, due primarily to increases in store expenses, general office
expenses and media costs.

The 33% increase in interest expense was due primarily to higher debt levels
coupled with higher interest rates.

The 1% increase in earnings before the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle in 1995 as compared with 1994, was due primarily to
increases in gross profit from merchandise sales and gross profit from
service revenue, as a percentage of related sales and revenues, offset, in
part, by increases in selling, general and administrative expenses and
interest expense.

On January 30, 1994, the Company adopted SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting
for Postemployment Benefits."  This statement establishes accrual accounting
standards for employer-provided benefits which cover former or inactive
employees after employment, but before retirement.  Adoption of this
accounting standard on January 30, 1994 resulted in  a one-time charge to
earnings of $4,300,000 (net of income tax benefit of $2,552,000) or $.07 per
share recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - July 29, 1995
- ----------------------------------------------

The Company's cash requirements arise principally from the need to finance
the acquisition, construction and equipping of new stores and to purchase
inventory.  During the first twenty-six weeks of 1995, the Company invested
$86,074,000 in property and equipment while net inventory (the increase in
inventory less the net change in checks outstanding and accounts payable)
decreased $24,913,000. Working capital decreased from $121,858,000 at January
28, 1995 to $78,357,000 at July 29, 1995.  At July 29, 1995 the Company had
stockholders' equity of $625,651,000 and long-term debt of $359,612,000.  The
Company's long-term debt was 36% of its total capitalization at July 29, 1995
and 39% at January 28, 1995.

The Company plans to open approximately 54 new stores during the balance of
the current fiscal year.  Management estimates that the cost of this
expansion, coupled with expenditures in existing stores, warehouses and
offices will be approximately $114,000,000.  Funds required to finance the
store expansion including related inventory requirements are expected to come
primarily from operating activities with the remainder provided by unused
lines of credit which totalled $247,000,000 at July 29, 1995, or from
accessing traditional lending sources such as the public capital markets.

On June 12, 1995 the Company sold $100,000,000 of 7% notes due June 1, 2005. 
Proceeds were used to repay portions of the Company's long-term variable-rate
bank debt, and for general corporate purposes.<PAGE>

                THE PEP BOYS - MANNY, MOE & JACK

                 EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE BONUS PLAN
         (as amended and restated as of March 31, 1995)


          The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack, a Pennsylvania
corporation (the "Company") established, effective January 29,
1989, an Executive Incentive Bonus Plan for the benefit of officers
of the Company who are eligible to participate as provided herein. 
On March 31, 1992 and March 30, 1994, the Board of Directors of the
Company (the "Board") amended the plan in numerous respects.  By
action of the Board on March 31, 1995, the plan was further amended
to read in its entirety as hereinafter set forth (the "Plan").
          1.   Purpose.  The Plan is intended to increase the
profitability of the Company by giving the officers of the Company
a financial stake in the growth and profitability of the Company. 
The Plan has the further objective of enhancing the Company's
executive compensation package, thus enabling the Company to
attract and retain executive officers of the highest ability.  The
Plan is intended to supplement, not replace, any other bonus paid
by the Company to its officers and is not intended to preclude the
continuation of such arrangements or the adoption of additional
bonus or incentive plans, programs or contracts.
          2.   Definitions.
               (a)  "Award Period" shall mean a measuring period of
one Fiscal Year.
               (b)  "Bonus" shall mean a cash payment made by the
Company to a Participant after an Award Period, based on increases
in EBIT, all as calculated and as more fully set forth under
paragraph 5 hereof.
               (c)  "Bonus Group" shall mean the level at which
Participants shall participate in the Plan as set forth in Section
4(b).
               (d)  "CEO" shall mean the person elected to the
office of Chief Executive Officer of the Company by the Board of
Directors.
               (e)  "CEO Level" shall mean the level that the CEO
shall participate in the Plan as set forth in Section 4(b).
               (f)  "Company" shall mean The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe
& Jack, a Pennsylvania corporation.
               (g)  "Compensation Committee" shall mean the
Compensation Committee of the Board.
               (h)  "Covered Employee" shall mean any Participant
that the Compensation Committee reasonably believes may be a
"covered employee" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the
Internal Revenue Code for the taxable year of the Company in which
a Bonus would be deductible.
               (i)  "EBIT" shall have the meaning set forth in
Paragraph 5 hereof.
               (j)  "Fiscal Year" shall mean the Fiscal Year of the
Company which ends on the Saturday nearest January 31 in each year.
               (k)  "Participant" shall have the meaning set forth
in Paragraph 4 hereof.
               (l)  "President" shall mean the person elected to
the office of President of the Company by the Board.
               (m)  "Salary" shall mean the base salary of an
officer of the Company for a Fiscal Year, including amounts which
Participant elects to forego to provide benefits under a plan which
satisfies the provisions of Section 401(k) or Section 125 of the
Internal Revenue Code, exclusive of all bonuses paid or accrued
with respect to that Fiscal Year, whether or not pursuant to a plan
or program.
          3.   Administration, Amendment and Termination.
               (a)  The Plan shall be administered by the
Compensation Committee acting by a majority vote of its members. 
The Compensation Committee shall have the power and authority to
take all actions and make all determinations which it deems
necessary or desirable to effectuate, administer or interpret the
Plan.  The Company's adoption and continuation of the Plan is
voluntary.  The Compensation Committee shall have the power and
authority to extend, amend, modify or terminate the Plan at any
time, including without limitation, to change Award Periods, to
determine the time or times of paying Bonuses, to establish
performance and EBIT goals, and to establish such other measures as
may be necessary to meet the objectives of the Plan; provided,
however, that, with respect to any Covered Employee, no amendment
shall change the Bonus calculation formula, as set forth in Section
5 herein, so as to increase the amount of Bonus payable upon
attainment of a goal for any Award Period after the beginning of
such Award Period.  An action to terminate or to substantively
amend or modify the Plan shall become effective immediately upon
its adoption or on such date as specified by the Compensation
Committee, but not with respect to any Fiscal Year prior to the
Fiscal Year in which the Compensation Committee so acts.
               (b)  All actions taken and all determinations made
by the Compensation Committee in accordance with the power and
authority conferred upon the Compensation Committee under
subsection (a) above shall be final, binding and conclusive on all
parties, including the Company and all Participants.
          4.   Participants.
               (a)  Each officer of the Company selected by the
Board to fill such office shall be entitled to participate in the
Plan for each Fiscal Year or portion thereof in which such person
serves as an officer (the "Participants", or individually,
"Participant"), unless excluded from participation by the
Compensation Committee or as provided by paragraph 7 hereof.  With
respect to a Participant who became an officer during a Fiscal
Year, such Participant shall be paid an amount equal to the amount
which would have been paid if the Participant had been employed for
the entire Award Period, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of
which is the number of days during the Award Period that the
Participant was an officer of the Company and the denominator of
which is the number of days in the Award Period.
               (b)  Participants shall participate in the Plan and
earn Bonuses in one of four Bonus Groups or at the CEO Level. 
Prior to the beginning of any Award Period or, in the event that a
person first becomes a Participant after the beginning of an Award
Period, with respect to such person at such time he first becomes
a Participant, the Committee shall determine which Participants
will participate in Bonus Group A, Bonus Group B and Bonus Group C. 
The Chief Executive Officer of the Company shall participate in the
Plan at the CEO level.  All other Participants shall participate in
Bonus Group D.
          5.   Calculation of Bonus.
               (a)  Each Participant shall be entitled to payment
from the Company of a Bonus equal to the applicable percentage of
such Participant's Salary for the Bonus Group in which the
Participant participates in the Plan, as set forth in the tables
below, for certain percentage increases in EBIT during an Award
Period over EBIT for the fiscal year which precedes the Award
Period.  For purposes of this Plan, "EBIT" shall mean the
consolidated earnings before income taxes of the Company, as
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and adjusted for any additions or reductions thereto
that the President recommends and the Compensation Committee
approves in order to eliminate the effect of extraordinary or non-
recurring items of income or loss.  In determining EBIT, there
shall be included as an expense of the Company all bonuses,
including, without limitation, those Bonuses paid or accrued under
this Plan with respect to the Fiscal Year.  For purposes of this
Plan, the column in the table below entitled "EBIT Increase"
measures EBIT for the Fiscal Year with respect to which the Bonus
is being calculated, against EBIT for the immediately preceding
Fiscal Year.

Except for EBIT increase calculations above 19.5% but less than 20%,
calculations of percentage increases in EBIT shall be rounded to the
nearest whole percentage.
               (b)  Nothing in this Paragraph 5 shall be used to
create any presumption that Bonuses under the Plan are the exclusive
means of providing incentive compensation for officers, it being
expressly understood and agreed that the Compensation Committee has
the authority to recommend to the Board of Directors payments to the
officers, in cash or otherwise, based on EBIT or otherwise, other than
Bonuses under this Plan, to Participants.
          6.   Payment of Awards.  Bonuses shall be paid in cash
within fifteen days after the Company has publicly announced its
consolidated earnings before income taxes for the Fiscal Year with
respect to which the Bonus is payable; provided, however, that, with
respect to any Covered Employee, no Bonus shall be paid unless and
until the Compensation Committee has certified in writing that the
EBIT goals as set forth in Section 5 have been met.
          7.   Termination of Employment.
               (a)  Other than as set forth in subparagraph (b) below,
a participant may not receive a Bonus for any Award Period if the
Participant's employment by the Company has terminated, for any reason
whatsoever, with or without cause, prior to the payment of the Bonus
with respect to such Award Period.
               (b)  If during an Award Period, a participant dies;
becomes disabled; or retires on or after his Early Retirement Date (as
defined in the Company's defined benefit pension plan), such
Participant (or the Participant's designated beneficiary) shall be
paid an amount equal to the amount which would have been paid if the
Participant had been an officer for the Award Period, multiplied by
a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the
Award Period that the Participant was an officer of the Company and
the denominator of which is the number of days in the Award Period.
          8.   Assignment and Alienation of Benefits.
               (a)  To the maximum extent permitted by law, a
Participant's right or benefits under this Plan shall not be subject
to anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or
charge, and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge,
encumber or charge the same shall be void.  No right or benefit
hereunder shall in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts,
contracts, liabilities or torts of the person entitled to such
benefit.
               (b)  If any Participant becomes bankrupt or attempts
to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber, or charge any
rights to a benefit hereunder, then such right or benefit, in the
discretion of the Compensation Committee, may be terminated.  In such
event, the Company may hold or apply the same or any part thereof for
the benefit of the Participant, his or her spouse, children or the
dependents, or any of them, in such manner and portion as the
Compensation Committee may deem proper.
          9.   Miscellaneous.
               (a)  The establishment of this Plan shall not be
construed as granting any Participant the right to remain in the
employ of the Company, nor shall this Plan be construed as limiting
the right of the Company to discharge a Participant from employment
at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.
               (b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
no Bonus shall be paid to any Covered Employee pursuant to the terms
hereof unless and until the material terms of the performance goals
as set forth in Section 5 are approved by the majority vote of the
Company's shareholders in a manner which complies with the
requirements of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.
               (c)  The paragraph headings in this Plan are for
convenience only; they form no part of the Plan and shall not affect
its interpretation.
               (d)  This Plan shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
