I'm sharing with my CFC friends a little puzzle that occurred to me (and that I haven't yet solved myself).

There's a lip balm named Carmex and an automobile rating service called Carmax.

And it got me to wondering if one could come up with a list of five brand names for products or services that differ from one another only in a single vowel within the word being different.

Feel free to share your three-item answers and four-item answers until somebody gets one with all five.
 
Domino's Pizza, Domino Sugar, and Domino the home decorating magazine.

I'm not sure this counts since Pizza isn't 1 letter different from Sugar, but the same 1st word isn't too bad. There is also Dominoes the game but I don't think there is a company called Dominoes that makes it.
 
Lapton-a shipping company out of Hong Kong
Lepton-taken as an appropriate product line name by FLIR for one of their microcameras
Lipton-pretty sure they make some sort of beverage
Lupton-a funeral home in St Louis
 
Kraft: makers of bad cheese products
Kreft-Moto: -makers of aftermarket suspension parts for KTM motorcycles
Krift: a herbicide made by Indo-gulf Cropsciences
Kroft: a restaurant in Aneheim California
Kruft-Esso: a gas station in Kruft, Germany

What do I win?
 
You're not a vowel.
Kraft: makers of bad cheese products
Kreft-Moto: -makers of aftermarket suspension parts for KTM motorcycles
Krift: a herbicide made by Indo-gulf Cropsciences
Kroft: a restaurant in Aneheim California
Kruft-Esso: a gas station in Kruft, Germany

What do I win?
You've won the right to refer to yourself as a vowel.
