Our car was dirty and needed to be cleaned, ideally, inside and out. After buying it (unfortunately not super clean to start with), traipsing dirt/sand in and out, and a dust storm, our car wasn't in the best of shape.
I'd heard from a friend that it wasn't too expensive to get the exterior washed, only 1 or 1.5 rials (about $4), so we decided to add on the interior figuring it would add on a few rials. Colin headed down to the local gas station for it to get cleaned out while he got a haircut across the street.
When he came back, he was handed a receipt for 2 rials. 2 RIALS for interior and exterior. $5???? "And do you want it polished? It's .5 rials more." "Yes please."
Getting in to drive home, Colin figured it would be generally cleaned on the inside with a quick vacuum. Oh no. It was SPARKLING clean. Detailed would be the word used at home. Vacuumed, windows cleaned, hard surfaces wiped down, mirrors cleaned, etc..., etc... In the states, that would've been a $50+ job. We paid $6.50 for a wash, polish, and detail.
A great deal? No, an extraordinary deal. We will be going back.
