I'm in south Texas so I can go to our local chain and pick up some Franklins BBQ sauce which I have found myself doing more and more. The Texas style is good and the Espresso is good but what I buy in bulk is the vinegar. I put that stuff on everything (except brisket of course.....)

Sweet Baby Ray's (good price on two bottle packs at Costco) or the generic store brand with some of my own spices. Spend more $ and time on the meat and the spices in the rub.
Find myself using sauce less and less but, Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet 'N Spicey is great and often on sale for a very good price, so always have some on hand. Also, usually have a couple different Blues Hog sauces on hand for those times when I'm too busy (lazy) to make my own.
If you are walking into a store to buy it I would have to go with Sweet Baby Ray's but if you can order it online get you some Black Swan sweet cognac, that stuff is addictive!
