I was having a top ten day last Saturday at my 6 bay self serve. The place was full for almost the whole afternoon. Since it was built as a drive in back out car wash, I find its usually a good idea to be around to help direct traffic and be of other assistance on days like that.
Someone pulled in and waited patiently for a bay to open and pulled in when it did. I nodded and smiled when he pulled in, but before he got out of the car, he rolled down the window and asked how much it cost to wash. I told him that it was $2.00 for four minutes and he could add to the time as he needed to.
He put the car in reverse and informed me that the competition about three miles away is $1.75. Fortunately, I didn't respond to him. That would have just started an argument.
As he was maneuvering out of the busy lot, he kept looking over his shoulder at me like I was supposed to price match the competition or something. I started laughing at him and couldn't stop until long after he was gone. I still think it's funny.
