Anyone know of a good carwash in the area that won't charge me an arm and a leg+my first born for in honor of Pesach?
Not the one on Mill Rd/ West Bway- apparently if you seem to be cleaning your car for Pesach, all regular washes are unavailable except for the $58 "Pesach Special".
The Shell one on Rock Tpke I'll never step foot in again. A few years ago I wanted to clean my little car before Pesach. I think the sign said $9.99 or whatever for a wash. First my wife washed her minivan for $9.99. A few days later I went inside to pay for my little cars wash and the guy wanted to charge me like $30 or $40 bucks!! I told him my wife paid $9.99 a few days ago and asked him what about the sign that says $9.99?!?!
The guy had he chutzpah to walk outside and place a towel over the sign.
I'll never go back there.
Not the hand wash on Rockaway Tpke either- Thats $42 for the Pesach special= $54 after tax
Wife went in there and asked for a regular $17 job. They did it but refused to vacuum back row and trunk thingy in the minivan. Apparently you need to pay an extra ~$25 for them to vacuum the back row and truck.
I told her she should've just gotten another $17 regular wash- the second for the back row/ trunk vacuum.
And there's one in Inwood on Sheridan Rd/Burnside that's decently priced and used to be okay. But all recent reports including my last year erev Pesach experience is that blind people seem to be doing the vacuuming. I think my car was dirtier afterwards.
So I'm out of local options too....
