Giveaway: $35 Jiffy Lube Gift Card

by Amanda @ A Few Short Cuts on November 18, 2009

motor oil maters

I have another giveaway to pass along to you guys.  That is one of the things I am thankful for this year.  I am thankful that I am able to help others save and hand out freebies to those who could truly use them!

This giveaway is sponsored by My Blogspark and MotorOilMatters.Org or M.O.M for short!  They were kind enough to offer to send me a giftcard as well as one of my readers.

MotorOilMatters.org is spreading the word about how proper vehicle care will help extend the life of your car.  Let’s face it.  With the economy in such bad shape, not many of us can afford to buy a new car right now.   We need to take care of what we have!

The site offers a fun, educational game for you to play called “M.O.M. Knows Best” where you can put your motor mind to the test with an interactive quiz.

Did you know?

  • According to a study by the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association, nearly 9 out of 10 female motorists are involved in their household’s vehicle maintenance and repair
  • According to a national survey that polled 522 women, 46 percent incorrectly assumed simply switching from conventional engine oil to synthetic oil enables the number of miles between oil changes to be safely extended*
  • Using a quality motor oil in the right grade can help maximize fuel economy, and help save money by preventing costly engine damage
  • Off-brand, no-name or discount oils that do not meet industry standards or the vehicle manufacturer´s requirements could cost consumers in the long run by potentially damaging the vehicle´s engine or possibly voiding the manufacturer´s warrant

I took the quiz and I didn’t do so well.  What do you expect?  I am the wife of a Truck Driver.  He takes care of all that stuff for me.

70 points–a perfect score! I don’t think I really know that much about engines, but so many of the answers were obviously wrong, it was easy.
