Special Wash Cycle?

[SmartCard]

I recently set up my SQ frontl for a Special Wash. The panel actually has a button marked "special wash" which will give the customers an extra cold wash and rinse. I set them up as .25 for 25# machine, .40 for 40#, .50 for 50# & .80 for 80#. I put a small sign atop every machine expalining the extra wash cycle and cost. From all indications it looks like I'm gaining 20% revenue. Any other SQ owners have similar stories? I'vde had my mat for 1 year and I'm still experimenting with all the options my card system offers. I also went 24 hrs on weekends and promoted .99 toploaders Midnight till 6a.m. it helped build a nice overnight biz.

I was wondering for those of you who can program wash cycles etc. how long you set them to wash, rinse and spin. Do you offer warm or extra rinse for additional price etc?

I have the Maytags with the supercycle option. We also receive about a 25% usage of this option.

In another store, I have the emerald series Wascos. I charge .25 more for anything with hot water, another .25 for heavy wash, which adds a second prewash, and finally, .25 for an extra 4 minutes of spin time.
