You might hit a special and get the two done for $35.95, using their brand oil. But don`t put if off waiting for a sale.
Locality, brand of oil, and number of quarts of oil and the size of your radiator will have a definite affect on the price.
I will go for any thing under $60.00 for the complete job.

Best Price For Oil Change

I would say a good price for a oil change would be anywhere from 30 to 50 dollars no more then that. An an antifreeze change should cost about the same as well.

Locally we often have coupons in the paper for 17.99 oil changes plus disposal fee and tax. Not a bad price if you consider that motor oil is 3-4 dollars per quart,you need 4-5 quarts and 2-3 dollars for the filter.I could not change it at my house much cheaper and then I would have to dispose of the oil.
Change anti-freeze depends on you car. But watch out for the so called radiator flush that many times is nothing more than opening the petcock at the bottom of the radiator.Draining the fluid. Then pouring in a gallon of anti-freeze and charging you 69.99 or whatever it is.

The guy doing the oil change is going to pay $1.75 per quart for the oil and about $2 for the oil filter if you have a regular vehicle. His cost for the parts alone is $10.75. To cover the cost of labor, shop overhead, and disposing of your old oil, a reasonable charge would be another $10 to $15. If they wash the windows or do anything else, the cost could be higher.
Some shops charge a lower price for oil changes as a loss-leader to get you into their shop. They still do a good job and might charge on $16.95.

normal price for an oil change is around $35...so anything less would be considered a good deal i guess.
Antifreeze change will be more expensive because it requires flushing the system. Prices are much more variable for changing antifreeze than oil.

About $20-$30 without tax. As just a basic oil change without anything else done, except the oil filter changed. Always change your filter, or have it changed, when you change your oil. Keeps your engine running better longer.
Antifreeze doesn't really need to be changed, at least I've never had to have it changed in my cars, just more added.

depends on how many quarts your car holds. I've seen a lot of coupons for $20-25 oil changes, but they never apply to my car since it holds 7 quarts of oil (typical is 5 or less).

For a basic change at Wal-Mart it will be about $15.00. That's using their brand of oil and filter.
The cooling system flush and refill will be around $50.00.
