| - Fully, unequivocally awesome.
Here is me: I am across the street at the Metro grocery shopping. I have a billion more errands to run.
I come back to my car with all my groceries and there are TWO notes on it telling me about my flat back tire... I thought I heard something crazy while I was arriving at the grocery store... ANYWAY I try not to freak out, contemplate calling CAA and waiting forever (I have SO MANY things to do though)... I'm wildly looking around for answers, when VOILA!
Across the street, I spy a big sign that says "SUPERIOR TIRE & AUTO" with a HUGE phone number. I dial it. I tell them the predicament, and propose I try to make it across the street with my car (slowly, with hazards on) so they can take a look. They tell me to go for it! Points for daredevil impulses!
Leon is who I dealt with - he was fantastic. Very nice, not pushy in the least. Totally upfront, honest, fine with my old clunker, very polite, friendly and QUICK! The two senior men sounded like they're from the UK... maybe Australia... I'm not great with accents.
I arrive, they discover the following:
A) There is a nail in my flat tire.
B) There is a screw in the other back tire.
C) All four of my tires are what they call "bald".
Decision time. Sighing and mulling. They have a special on FAB winter tires that week, it turns out, for $89 each! SWEET! I decide to just get 4 new winter tires and be done with it... and here I thought I was just running errands! Ouch!
Anyway, they were super fast - my nail place (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/michelle-le-nails-east-york) is in the mini-plaza next door, so I just went and got "muh nulls did". A mere 45 minutes later, I have 10 new dazzling fingertips AND four new magnificent winter tires. LOVE IT!
