I'd suggest finding an independent or a dealer with an oil change special. It's $34.95 here at Continental, but we don't have ski passes.
A dealer or and indy pratices the same loss leader philosophy as a Jiffy Lube, except they have a more legitimate reason, earning your service business for the rest of the work.
A Jiffy Lube type place can only oversell other fluid changes and minor maintenance. A friend of mine was asked to smell her differential fluid after her cheap oil change resulting in her spending another $50 to change her diff fluid.
So if your savvy and resistent to the upsell required when a place's "core business" is a come on, well just be knowledgable and careful. Doesn't a '99 9-3 use semi-synth which means you probably don't qualify for the bargain special anyway?
