and no one could or would take a NO Thank you, for an answer. I had to get down right rude to get one guy to back off. I think it is safe to say we are all feeling the pinch of a struggling economy, and everyone needs the chance to earn a fair wage. That said, when I go to the car wash which I don't do very often.. I DO NOT want to be harassed!!! I pull up and the attendant asks which wash I would like. I ask for the VIP, and immediately the up sale begins. That is fine, he is just doing his job, but after the 4Th kind No Thank you and the explanation that I have a one year old and two, two year olds in the car, and this needs to be quick and painless for me. You should quit pushing me, PLEASE!!!!The first guy finally realizes he is not going to get anymore out of me and gives up. When I get out to put my kids in the stroller the glass guy starts in on me. He has found some chip in my windshield, I can not even see, and begins his spheel. Oh, Here we go again..... He starts in on how I need to have it repaired and how it will cost me nothing and I say "No Thank You," I have a friend in the glass business, and I have her take care if all my glass needs. I do have a friend, No lie, and she gives me her kick back so I earn money when I need a windshield replaced. He must think I am bluffing, because he tries another and another reason and explanation and to all I reply, "NO THANK YOU!!!." Now I have had enough, and finally I look at him and say " This is why I hate coming to get my car washed. No one will just let me pull in, ask for the wash I need, say no thank you to any extras, and be on my way." He replies, " You don't have to be rude I was just trying to explain" To which ,I did not reply. I simply walked away with my kiddos to pay for my car wash, feeling like I had just been trying to explain what no means to a two year old. In the back of my head, I was thinking. just like I do at home "Why doesn't anyone listen to me?????"

Just never wash it, that's what I do, wait, I never go out!!! even better!!
We wash our car once our twice a year at a place where we only deal with machines not people.
You know it's going to rain now, right?
Well...at least you have a car wash! :) Around here we ONLY wash our cars in the summer....by hand! In the winter it's not worth it (freezing)
I love a freshly washed car. But it rarely happens for myself either. I usually just do the drive through and do the windows when I get home.
It is nice to get the special treatment sometimes though- but this experience was ridiculous.
