Everlast Battery by dtownfb
Feb 20, 2009 (12:21 pm)
Reply
I had a very pleasant experience at my local Advance Auto part recently.
 
Bought a battery for my 2000 Olds Intrigue back in February/march 2005, Autocraft Titanium. Battery died two weeks ago during a cold spell here in south central PA (car is parked on the street and exposed to all elements). The battery had a 3 year free replacement/84 month prorated. Even though I didn't have the receipt, they used the battery code labeled on the side of the battery which had the battery built in October 2004. Never expected much of a refund for the prorated warranty, maybe $10. I received $27.90 back. The new battery was $74.

I had to push a bit. All the sales people were under 20 and had a tough time realizing that 84 months is 7 years. My battery was only 4 years old. Once they grasped that concept, it was fine.

Go to NAPA, buy something, give them your old hat and they'll give you a new NAPA Racing Hat.

I couldn't make out all the fine print when I clicked through - looks like it's while supplies last.

And ANCO has mail-in rebates going for several models of windshield wipers. Takes forever to get the rebate though (~10 weeks!).

Great! I'll buy my next pair of wiper blades at Walmart and pick up the $5 rebate on them.
 
I buy a new pair and move the olds ones around--my cars both take the same size.

Bought blades.
Filled out rebate form online.
Printed said form.
Mailed to Cleveland, which is 4 hours away in the same state, and they project it will take up to 12 weeks. Luckily I'm a patient, nice, calm person.

This is one of those where you enter the info online. I like that. Then you print the form and send in the register receipt.
 
It's so easy..., and I know I can check online to be sure they get the mail.

get out of jail free card by steve_ HOST

You wish.
 
This one is a coupon for a free flat repair at Mr. Tire. I assume that's a national chain although I've never seen one. Coupon expires 5/30/09.
 
I always get my flats fixed free at Les Schwab, a tire store chain out in the western part of the US. Discount Tire also fixes them free from what I've heard.
