Mr. Lube + Tires? So like… they’re done doing oil changes or what?
This sounds like a bunch of random brands tied together and people are acting like it’s normal. AIR MILES was always sketchy anyway lol.
Wait I thought DIV was the one closing, not Diversified Royalty. Also if they own all these trademarks, does that mean Mr. Mikes is just gonna vanish? My buddy said Stratus Building Solutions is basically scams too, so I don’t know.
Closing the Mr. Lube + Tires buy just makes me think prices will go up. Like they’ll squeeze the franchisees and then tell everyone it’s ‘royalty partners’ or whatever. Nurse Next Door in Canada too?? Confusing. I read somewhere AIR MILES is getting canceled so maybe that’s related but who even knows.
