Some of them are weird where I am because you can buy a shitty/fast 3 minute wash for $15 or the good-soapy-with-undercarriage one for $25, OR you can buy the ultra-mega-unlimited monthly washes card for $32 or something.
I bet enough people buy the $32 unlimited one and only go one time, that it’s basically free money to them. But if you’re going to get at least two washes per month, you have to get the unlimited to get the better price. It’s all very clever and designed to get the most value from you.
They all have “free” vacuums though, for paying customers.
Where are people going that have subscriptions? I have never seen that. Closest I’ve seen is you get a discount if you buy like 10 or something
One near me does it. They just happened to have a special where a month cost less than a single wash and my spouse went for it.
Nightmare to cancel the damn thing.
Mikes Car Wash, although it’s more like buying washes in advance to get a better price. They do have an unlimited wash subscription thing too though
They might show up soon. I think they’re popping up more frequently now that ALPR camera systems are more prevalent.
