<\/p>\n
A woman\u2019s sharp listening skills helped her secure a deal on new tires at Discount Tire\u2014and it\u2019s all because of her Costco card. Here\u2019s what she says happened.<\/p>\n
TikTok user Pie & Prayer (@pieandprayer) posted a video with her discovery on Saturday. \u201cIf you\u2019re getting new tires from Discount Tire and you have a Costco membership, Costco does not have an installation fee, and if you tell them that you have a Costco membership, Discount Tire will waive the installation,\u201d she says to start the video.<\/p>\n
Well, she explains that the week prior, she went to purchase a new set of tires at Discount Tire. That\u2019s when she overheard the salesperson trying to close a sale with a couple. The salesperson asked the couple if they were considering going to Costco, and the woman replied that they were.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe goes, \u2018We will waive the installation fee, since they waive the installation fee,\u2019\u201d Pie & Prayer says. \u201cThey still passed, but it saved me money. So I pulled [my Costco card] out, and he goes, \u2018Alright,\u2019 and waived the price of installation, which saved a lot of money because they charge per tire.\u201d<\/p>\n
In the comments section, viewers debated the merits of Discount Tire versus Costco when it comes to the price of new tires.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll still go with Costco,\u201d wrote one person.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only benefit\u2014and I mean the only benefit\u2014to buying at Discount Tire is they have more locations and you can get in and out faster. Everything else Costco does better,\u201d agreed another user.<\/p>\n
\u201cI still love Costco, but I won\u2019t buy tires there again,\u201d offered a third user. \u201cWent back to Discount Tire where you get same-day service.\u201d<\/p>\n
A fourth viewer said, \u201cUsed to work at Costco tire. People always wait until it snows, \u2018[I] tell them it will be about five hours for install. They stomp out [saying], \u2018I\u2019m going to Discount Tire.\u2019 Two hours later [they] come back.\u201d<\/p>\n
As several viewers in the comments stated, Costco\u2019s Installation Package includes<\/a> rotation, balancing, and flat repairs over the life of the tire. Discount Tire offers price matching<\/a>,\u00a0and its Life of Tire Maintenance service includes<\/a> free rotation, rebalancing, air pressure checks, flat repair, and tire safety inspection.<\/p>\n In terms of warranties, MSN<\/a> thinks that Discount Tire offers a better customer experience, albeit at a higher price point. It really comes down to Discount Tire being easier to both contact and get in for an appointment. Costco\u2019s warranty comes along with some red tape that makes it slightly harder to take advantage of the protection.<\/p>\n Motor1<\/em> reached out to Pie & Prayer via TikTok comment and direct message for comment. It also reached out to Costco via media contact form and Discount Tire via email.<\/p>\n \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A woman\u2019s sharp listening skills helped her secure a deal on new tires at Discount Tire\u2014and it\u2019s all ...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":872,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-event-coverage"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=870"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":873,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870\/revisions\/873"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/872"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
