Could be, but it's also an outstanding business model for a carwash. It evens out the cash flow when the weather is bad, and often doesn't add up for the customer. I had a subscription for 5 years with the first one in San Francisco. I finally dropped it when the price hit $50 a month and it was still too packed to get a scrub whenever I wanted. The washes were $25 each, so I had to go every other week just to break even.
