Took my car to Stafford Tyres last week and had 4 new tyres fitted. While they were being fitted one of the lads called me out and showed me (while the wheels were off) that my front bushes needed replacing and that they could do it the following week for about £140 - £160 in my lunch hour. Now I'm no car expert so I asked him to write it down what I needed doing and said I'd come back to him later. Luckily the car was being serviced a few days later and was then told that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the front bushes and they certainly did not need replacing.
Now this kind of thing really annoys me, I always try and support local companies but when they try and rip you off it makes my blood boil.
Also, the bill came to something like £132.98 and when I looked at my credit card receipt later they rounded it up to £133.00! I know it was only 2p but are times that hard!
