[Esso] Circle K/Esso 50% off premium car wash when buy $10 worth of scratch tickets YMMV

Savings:: 50%
Retailer:: Esso

I don’t have a link but I just saw the promo sign on the front of the Circle K/Esso store I went to today. So the deal is if you spend $10 or more on scratch lotto tickets they will give you 50% off the purchase of a premium car wash. Now for all the people that say that this is just a waste of money because you’re gonna lose on the scratch tickets well think of it this way - a premium car wash is about $20 anyways after tax and if you buy $10 worth of scratch tickets 50% off a premium car wash comes to about $10 so really it’s almost like you’re paying full price for a premium car wash with the chance of winning something on them-there scratch tickets. Yes you might lose on scratch tickets but you also might win.

Seen in Ontario…it may only be an Ontario lotto promo thing or maybe cross-country at all Circle K stations. so YMMV.
Car wash Ticket expires in 90 days.

At current gas prices, I kinda feel these guys should be coming to our homes and washing our cars for us after every ten fill-ups.

Except a 4 pack premium wash is $50. So $12.50 per

So not that great the “savings”

I'm in Ontario and this was at an Esso Gas Station, not sure how widespread this offer is

Buy $10 in Lottery, get 50% off a Premium Wash

Premium washes are $17.99, so this is a savings of approximately $9

Save $9 in car wash and (most likely) lost $10 in lottery. Nice

If you play the lotto and you want to wash your car, then this is a great deal!

If you don’t do either, move along

The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten....

Modern problems require modern solutions: Buy some 649 tickets with a date of late December and give them as stocking stuffers/secret santa gifts.

I'd tweak to say "if you play lotto and PAY RETAIL for car washes"... I'd never pay $10+ for a wash, often using promos or loyalty offers to get them at a discount (and stupid PCO conversion at Esso has ruined that!).

I only go to touchless car washes, very unfortunate it happened to your car. I would try to escalate the issue with HQ, I am sure they will do something about it if you are persistent enough. Maybe even go to the parent company Suncor....
