The dealership where I bought my car did an alternating half price deal where the first one was full price, the next one was half price, full, half, etc. alternating as long as you took your Subaru to them for the service. They didn't do a good job of explaining it, so it wasn't unusual to hear someone asking why their oil change was less or more than last time. On average it brought the cost of oil changes down below what it would cost at the quick change oil places.

Then I moved, and the dealer at my new location charges full price all the time, and their "full price" is about 150% of "full price" at my prior dealership. And they're morons. At one point they "lost" my appointment and tried to tell me I'd have to come back on a different day, until the look on my face made the service rep afraid. Then they keep sending me emails addressed to other people. So I'm trying a new dealer in the next town over in the hope that they're actually competent.
