Easy, first take your car in for 15,000kms service -
Okay, I get that they put in expensive oil as it's a 10 year engine warrantee
They had the car for 2 hours (half their estimated time), it's been serviced and nicely vacuumed.
I can't find any issue with the $600 charge, I'm just upset as my old Toyota only had oil and filter change every 3 or 4 years, which I did myself for about $100 each time (after 300,000kms, kids had eventually left home, no need for a people mover).
My old Toyota servicing over 10 years approx. $600
New car, servicing over 10 years approx. $8,000
While I waited for my vehicle, I took a 10 minute walk to Mitre 10 hardware which has Columbus coffee inside - had coffee and even a light lunch, read the paper, checked out all the stuff in the hardware shop, wasted an hour on FB while having another drink.
Then pay your annual vehicle road tax ($180)
Next, take your dog to the vets as it's been chewing on its own skin (yes I waved to the neighbours on our shared driveway). I had to muzzle him once we were at the vets table while he's climbing all over me. I was worried his claws might damage my top as he tried to climb over my shoulders to escape the young vet.
Again, no issue with the bill, but within 6 hours I had spent a weeks income 😟After the vets, I took the little portable pooping machine for a walk
