Flowers, chocolates, and fancy dinners. These are all Valentine’s Day staples that have become synonymous with the holiday of love. While I am not here to lie to you that your special someone doesn’t want flowers this year, because they most definitely do. I am here to share with you the lovely gift of changing a loved one’s oil and its benefits.

It shows them that you care.

Being in the quick lube industry, it’s easy to forget how impactful it is to have your oil changed. In today’s “need it now” culture, it’s easy to put this task on the back burner and forget about it. Taking the initiative and bringing their car to a quick lube center or changing the oil yourself is a great way to show them you care about them!

It Lasts Longer Than a Fancy Dinner.

An oil change is good for 3,000 miles whereas a fancy dinner will only last a few hours. That’s 3,000 miles worth of memories you two will be sharing over the next couple of months. Not to mention the money you will be saving, especially when you find a local oil change coupon on the internet!

PROTIP: Use Your Savings to Cook a Special Dinner.

But don’t celebrate quite yet, because a happy partner is one that’s full of delicious food. If you are running low on ideas, here are a few for you to try out:

At DEVON, we hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful Valentine’s Day. Whether you took our advice or not, be sure to make sure to get your oil changed every 3,000 miles! That’s it for now, lovebirds!
