Other than 1335 and 1450, what are some other Wyeast strains that work well with Yooper's Oatmeal Stout? What about anything from Omega?

Austin Homebrew Supply had been my go-to since the LHBS closed in October. But I refuse to pay $9.99 for a single pack at AHS and then another $7.99 for them to ship it to Plano (a suburb of Dallas). There are a couple places in Ft Worth that I can go to. Though they don't have 1335 or 1450, their prices are better and they're (somewhat) local.
 
I’d go wigs dry yeast, say US-05.
I no longer have a local supplier of Wyeast and I’m not willing to neuter either a 2+ hour drive nor rely on shipping, packing, etc. by online suppliers.
 
For stout, I literally use whatever's cheap. It's more about the malt than the yeast. I used Munton's ale yeast in my last batch and was happy with it. I think it was like $1.99.

This ☝. Stout is definitely not yeast focused.
I think Muntons is a highly under appreciated yeast. The 6 gram size is perfect for smaller batches.
