For the last two years I've went to Porter's for my yearly auto inspection. The first year everything was perfect. But this year I ended up needing two windshield wiper blades and two front signal bulbs. I had waited for over an hour with five kids when I was finally seen. They finished with the inspection when I was told about the wipers and bulbs. I asked how much they would cost and I couldn't believe what they wanted to charge me, $41.34 for two blades and two bulbs! I told them I wanted to run across the street to Kmart and get the stuff and I would be right back. They said if you do you'll be at the back of the line and your entire inspection will have to be redone. Knowing I had a screaming newborn in the van and four other children getting restless from being stuck in the van so long, I'm sure they figured that I wouldn't want to do that and I didn't. So I just stayed and paid it because it was the last day of the month and I had to have it done. But I believe they are a total rip off! I will find a new place when my next inspection rolls around.
