Costco Rocks!



Nitrogen in my tires - Yes, I heard about it when?  Back in September 2009.  Going to do it, going to do it, going to do it, just haven't gotten around to it yet...  Well, it couldn't have been easier, let me tell you !  (And remember, we're all about EASY here, trying to fit change into our already crazy-busy lifestyles/priorities etc)

IF you're a member of Costco (and probably then by extension, BJ's, Sam's Club, who knows where else - just call!) then next time you go in to shop, park by the tire center, go into the tire shop and sign in for nitrogen, show your membership card, leave your key.  When you're done shopping, stop back by the tire desk, retrieve your key, and go get your car.  Yup!  As easy as that!  While you were in shopping anyway (see, not even any lost time here) the Costco people brought your car up to the shop, deflated all four tires, filled them with nitrogen, and then added the cool green caps!  Woo hoo!  Couldn't have been easier.  And FREE!

If anyone at this point is still wondering WHY?  Well, that's a great question!  Without a doubt, there's NO downside.  Go to GetNitrogen.com for details, but in general, tire stay inflated properly longer, so better gas mileage, less tire wear and tear, not to mention - the cool green caps!

(Note:  Cudos to my daughter for making the phone call to Costco to check out the procedures; we actually all went together, so got to spend a half hour chatting well, roaming Costco aisles - added bonus!)
