Not a lot of detail, but,

The 1/2 card said.

HEADLIGHTS CLEANED.

Your Left ___ Right ___
Both____ Headlight(s)
Need Cleaned
Call 555-1212
University Hts. Area

Only ________
FREE Sealer if Cleaned by
_______

Or a variation of that.

I carried them in my pocket and put them in the driver's window. I walked to coffee shop and park every day, took a different route and
put them on the cars that needed them.

Don't know how many I went through. Did enough to keep me
as busy as I wanted to be.

Prices varied depending on cars. Some, only needed ONE headlight, due to how they parked.
If they were out, like on a Saturday AM, I did a quick test, and then sold them.

The area I was in, University Hts. is a dense population with thousands of cars, I could probably work just there for a year and still not cover it.

NOW, with the 3 minute process, I'll do it a little differently. TEST some things out, but I will probably stick with my neon cards.

PS I filled in the blanks on the spot, varied prices and times. Went as high as 60 as low as 10...20 seems to be the sweet spot.
