Thanks to everyone that contributed to this thread, I appreciate all the info.
I ended up ordering a 10 pack of Champ XL's from rockauto. I was already ordering a trans filter, air filters, cabin filters, spark plugs, wires, etc and adding the oil filters only added a few bucks onto the shipping cost so my total cost on them is quite low.
I think these should be a good alternative to the FL820s and WIX XPs I've been using.
i myself would occasionally run the 820s and just get them when i needed them or I would run supertech purolator etc. because a lot of my vehicles don't get a lot of miles every year but since the MC filters took a pretty big hike in price I think i'm done with them.
I've been looking at Casite filters which are made by hastings and you can buy a 12 pack on ebay for 40 bucks.
