Today, Friday, July 20, I went to Fowler Tires with a 45% off coupon for any passenger or light truck tires. After getting a quote, which I had also done the previous week for $380 per tire, I brought out their coupon. He then says, oh, that's only if you get them installed here. I'm like, it doesn't say that. He says, I'm sure it does, so I read it to him. But I said, you know what, OK, I'm getting a good deal, you guys can install them. He then tells me my new total is $1,880 from $1,580 before the coupon. I'm like, I got a 45% off coupon, and he's like, yeah, but now you're paying for installation and balancing. I'm like, what is balancing, $1,000? He says no, it's $75 per tire. I'm like, then how is it so much? He says the tires are $697 each. I'm like, you just quoted me for $380 each and I've compared to other shops, how are they $697 now? He says, after a bunch of arguing, that because of the coupon I gotta pay catalog price and I only end up saving 2%. That's absolutely false advertising to offer a 45% coupon then jack up the price by an equal amount when someone uses it; it is very misleading. If I just pulled out my coupon right away and said that I need these tires, I would have had no idea. Imagine how many elderly, unhandy, or new Canadians would be taken advantage of. I took my business elsewhere. I'm not looking for anything back except for them to stop this false advertising. Thank you.
