How many of you check the air pressure on your tires, and then fill with air when the pressure is low? This cold time of year, I get something lit up on my dashboard occasionally that at least one of my tires has low pressure. I then go to the gas station, and ask them to check it out, and fill tires, when needed. How much should I tip them in this frieezing cold day? Money is very tight, but they are doing me a favor. Thanx.

Between $3 and $5 if they check the tires and they don't need air.

A few dollars more if they do need air and they fill them.

For the future, I got a portable tire compressor on Amazon and I love it! It plugs into the cigarette lighter and you just set it to the pressure you need. Very convenient and it'll be worth it after a few uses. They range in price but you can get for around 20$.

I think Chaverim uses those.

This is the one I got:

There are others that are cheaper, but I liked that you can set the pressure and it automatically stops when filled.
