Does it cost a quarter, or 50 cents to put air in your tires..... |
|
...where you live?
It costs me $0.50.

4. Depends on where I go. |

In some places yes, in others no. Usually at convenience stores and the like yes, at full service stations no.

14. The only thing odder than this thread being taken seriously........ |
|
Is that fact that it's still on the front page.

19. Well, that's infinitely more interesting than tire air. |
|
But that's just one man's opinion.

22. yes, but you also include money. |
|
Money is always interesting.
Now, if you had posted: at what pressure do you keep your tires?
THAT would be worthy.
:D

25. Good point. I guess I figured that........ |
|
The cost of tire air was inconsequential. Now I can see that I was wrong.

21. Yep, no free air here in Georgia. |
|
There is one station around the corner from me that offers free air. But that is the only one I know of. At least we can't be charged for the air we breath.

23. Although the machines have coin slots, its supposed to be free in CA. |
|
Its a law. What you need to do is go into the clerk and get a token or the correct change. I remember watching the news stations down here go on about the new law for about a week or so a couple of years ago.
If you're in CA try that.

24. I use my own mini-compressor |
|
Runs off the cigarette lighter in the car, but also has a battery so it's chargable off AC.
BIL got me one for a Christmas gift. It's pretty slick - he had to use it to pump up one of his tires before the family could leave after the holidays. :-)
