I just bartered my oil change/filters from $39.99 to 25.

Just ask.

I don't live in bumfuck Iowa bro, a pack of smokes and a coke here is like 12 bucks.

 

[GUARDIAN]

how?

 

[Raptorex]

how?

Basically, they assume everyone is clueless, so they move quickly thru a list of things you don't need or will not get and be charged for. I just said, that should be at least 15 dollars less (he said I'll take care of you at the desk).

 

[GUARDIAN]

i wonder how much i can save off of my $19.99

I can't let any of those quickie oil change places do my oil and filter changes. Half the time those places put the plug back in the pan before it's even fully drained. I can get a Purolator Pure One and 5 quarts of MC synthetic blend for $17 and make sure the job is done right.

Hey I cut up a tree with a chainsaw last week. First time I never used one. My fiance would never get out there and do it so I cut down the remaining 15 foot trunk and cut up the part on the ground. chainsaws totally fucking rock.

Great stress relief, just watch for the kickback and keep it maintained. You should break out the axe, great shoulder and back workout.

I avoid it, typically.

Yeah I read the manual a lot before using it. It's got a tall hand guard that instantly stops the chain when it kicks back even a little and your hand bumps that guard. Axes make too many of those chips that you have to clean up afterwards CS's just leave you with a neat little pile of dust.

Well, those are pretty important - maybe next time.

You add to your appeal with the crazy chainsaw chick act!

Depends how good you are on your knees. You might actually make some money off the deal
