You go to a wall mart here for tires and they're so stupid they'll mount bicycle tires on yer car.....

Go for an oil change and your likely to get vegetable oil in the crank case.

When you're only making $1.36 an hour to service cars you really don't care.

You mean the sort of place you have to shop if you don't have a car?

I was thinking more along the lines of the sort of place where you can't shop unless you bring your own bag.
