This Winter was pretty brutal and my car took a beating, the outside, the inside it just was never warm enough to clean it without the soap freezing to the exterior so it went without a wash for months. Now that it is warmer I went to get my car washed and vacuumed out. The amount of dog hair could have allowed me to knit a sweater. No joke!
This is such a necessary but boring task, what better reward that to have someone else pay for it. Save that money for a pedicure or a coffee!


Are you considering doing your own Act of Kindness? If not, what is stopping you? Grab a button if you would like to spread the word. The change that we seek in others has to first come from within. This year I hope you decide to Be the Change You Seek.

you rock, Kerry!!! i bet the person next in line was so happy and it totally made their day!!! you’re the best with such a kind heart! xoxoxoxo
Thank you! I was so nice to clean my car and help someone else!
Very nice! I love the carwash!!!
I “detailed” the insides of 2 of our cars. The shop vac did the trick and then just wiping down everything.
I did it on a nice shady day! I am vowing to keep on top of it!!!
Love SMD’s Momma
It is so hard to keep it clean but much easier when you stay on top of it!
you are such a wonderful person! you totally made someones day!
Thank you so much! I hope so!
I hate spending money on carwashes so this is so great! I hope the next person was super happy and surprised!
I hate it too, but I am always glad when it’s clean!
you always have the best #bethechange ideas!! Such a wonderful woman!
Thank you!! I try to think outside the normal RAOK box.
A free car wash is a great idea especially after all the snow/salt from the winter! Now I’m dealing with my car being covered in pollen every morning…another wonderful reason for a car wash 🙂

Yes, the salt crust was so bad. I forgot about the pollen too! It gets bad!
awesome idea!!
Thank you! Hopefully someone’s car is squeaky clean!
Left handed chicken scratch for the win! I love when I meet other left handed people.
It is so hard to write neatly! I really should print them but I was pressed for time.
You are the nicest as usual!
I desperately need to not only wash the outside of my car but do an overhaul of the inside. Actually, I just want to sell the damn thing!
Awww thank you so much! Haha! Is it that bad?! I could use a detailing but that is expensive though I think there was a groupon for one today!
What a great idea and you def made someones day! You go girl!
Thank you. I really hope so!
I love this idea! Did you buy the wash in advance or just leave a few dollars? This one would be easy to do.
I bought it in advance so they just add the code into the machine and if they want to upgrade they can add money. You could just put money in a bag too though.
This is a GREAT idea! Also, reminds me that I need to clean/wash my car! hahaha
Hahaha!! Working at the car wash, yeah! Can’t get that song out of my head now!
This post was great.
I love the BE THE CHANGE YOU SEEK.
It’s YODA LIKE AND AWESOME!
And, my car totally needs a good wash as well.
Thank you! A little Yoda was needed! 😉 After a harsh winter and the fact that I practically live in my car (thanks commute) it was so needed! 😉
My chicken scratch is worse, almost un-readable sometimes. Love the car wash pictures!
Glad I am not the only one! I totally switch from cursive to print. Figured some action shots were necessary! 😉
wow what an awesome gesture!
Thank you! It is one of things that are not fun to pay for yourself.
Such an amazing gesture and it totally gave me goosebumps!!
Thank you so much! That means the world to me!
Nice idea, that’s a treat to find there for sure. And maybe a person who wasn’t planning on a wash could get one now.
Your chicken scratch? LOLOL. My handwriting looks like a serial killer’s.
Very true! It is not my most favorite thing to do so it would cheer me up. Haha! Glad someone has worse handwriting than mine!
What a cute idea! I’m sure the person was ecstatic to receive a free car wash!
Thank you. I hope so. It is one of things you dread doing, so hopefully this made it a little better.
This is so awesome!!!! Car washes are a necessary evil…what a great surprise!!!!
They really are, with the ice and the pollen. So needed. Glad someone got one free.
You are seriously so thoughtful!!!
Thank you. I love being able to give back and spread a little happiness when I can.
This is so great, Kerry!
Thank you. It was fun doing it.
Love this! You’re so super sweet, Kerry!!!!
Thank you. I just try to do what I can.
