    Wiper blades up or down

    Seeing all of the cars in the parking lot with their wiper blades up had me thinking...do you put yours up when it snows or do you just leave them down?

    Same here. Only for when icing is expected, if it's just snow they stay down so I don't look like a dweeb...

    Down. I've never had them freeze while at work.

    I had to send out the "all users" message today about closing early. I said that anyone who backed in and put their wipers up, owes me 10 raffle tickes to next year's Christmas raffle. If you just put the wipers up, it's only a 5 ticket charge.
