Video: Bothell Automotive Offers Free Oil Changes for Canned Goods
December 1, 2008 · 3:53 PM
Bothell Automotive started a Holiday food drive at 9 a.m. Nov. 19 with a Craigslist ad that read: “Bothell Automotive is offering free oil and filter changes (most cars, up to four quarts) in exchange for nonperishable food donations of five cans or more, to be donated to a local food bank.”
After only four or five hours, they had to take the post down as their calendar filled with appointments.
As of Nov. 20, they had six oil changes (valued at $30 each) and received 15 pounds of canned and boxed food and some dry goods.
Bothell Automotive will continue the drive until Dec. 31.
