I find a 39$ special for an oil change at a garage that does general repairs. I go online and make an APPOINTMENT as they have days divided into one hour blocks and you choose one.
Last week online, I picked this morning at 7:30-8:30 as my time. Take my car there and the dickhead informs me "There are no real appointments. You drop your car off in the morning and pick it up in the afternoon, based on when they can get to it. We'll give you a call, bye."
Long bitchfest short - I ask the guy how am I supposed to get home and he sarcastically says there is a bus stop right in front or he could call me a cab...
I tell him I have to wait there (and just about jump across the counter to hit him).
He says - Oh people don't do that, it could be 3pm today by the time we're finished.
I ask for his manager and I tell him that their website/process is misleading, he kind of agrees and then says - We hear this all the time.
So my "39" dollar oil change turns into a 71 dollar oil change because they have to use dextrose oil, shop supplies, tax etc etc...
I just got home. Fuck it, next time I go to one of those quickie oil change places
