Free air
 
Anyone know of a gas station in or close to TV that offers free air to top off car tires?

Please say you are kidding?

Just purchase a portable air compressor for less than $35 plugs into an aux outlet car (cigarette lighter) home depot or lowes. Works on golf carts too.

That was my first thought also. There's 'penny-pinching' - then there's "PENNY-PINCHING." Unless air is really special down there, I've never seen where it costs more than a few quarters to use a public air compressor. lol

Wawa in Oxford on 301 had free air the last time I stopped for gas.

Need the pennies to check tire tread depth.

“Up there” might be couple quarters. Here in civilization, most have installed the automated machines that charge $2.50 and still might not work correctly.

It’s amazing what you use to get for 35 cent gallon while you set in you’re car. Let’s see, meant with smile and can I help you, pumped gas, checked oil, cleaned windshield, and checked tire pressure if requested. All for employees making 1.25 hours at best. Not 1965 for sure. Who said the good old days was good?:shocked:
