It really is a nuisance to have to fit regular car maintenance into your busy schedule,Oil Change Coupons to Start To Do List Snowball Articles but oil change coupons can help. Women who are in charge of running the house, raising the kids, teaching life lessons, and keeping up responsibly with house and car maintenance often find themselves cutting corners in an effort to either save money or time. The best way to remember to take your car in for maintenance is to put it on the to do list.

If you keep hold of that Sunday paper, those oil change coupons will be the perfect motivator to keep your car's appointment. Use it as an excuse to start checking off other things on your very long to do list. You may even be able to accomplish some things that you normally would not get to if you were attached to wheels running errands around town.

If you choose a conveniently located place at which to drop your car, you may be a convenient walk to the supermarket. You may even be in one. While your vehicle is being tended to, knock out your grocery shopping. But an extra sweet treat for yourself with the cash you are saving with the discount you snagged at the lube shop. When you have finished shopping, cart on over to the car maintenance counter, pay the refreshingly cheap bill for your car, load up the groceries in the trunk and enjoy your "two birds with one stone" accomplishment.

You may instead want to use that time without a car to your advantage. Often we become handicapped by our vehicles wasting good time behind the wheel that we could be accomplishing something, so if you are parked in a quick lube stall, or if you are waiting in a waiting area for your vehicle to be complete, crack open your laptop and catch up on everything. Look over your calendar, type up those emails and invitations you have needed to send. Get those e-pictures off to the grandparents, make a Christmas wish list on an online shopping site, or, take that webinar that you need in order to volunteer at your church or school. Accomplishing one, all, or any of these things will put you a step ahead of the daily grind, and your feeling of accomplishment will be two fold because you have added to the family's cash flow by cashing in with oil change coupons.

If you just do not feel like you have much to accomplish from behind the wheel of your parked car, see if the establishment you have chosen for car maintenance has a shuttle car. Often you can be chauffeured back to your home while you wait for your vehicle to be ready, and since you will be at home without a car, you can tackle some of those chores that often remained undone due to your constant running.
