I remember the first time I went to the dry cleaners just around the corner from my home.  I usually build up quite a bit of stock to clean.\n\nI asked how much the total items would cost.  They replied, \"Saturday after 3,\" or something.  Now, I should have spoken up, but I know the original question was clearly stated.\n\nBut at this point, they had my clothes, my address, and a face, and I didn't want to cause any trouble.  At the time I was teaching, and I couldn't go to the next week without any suits.\n\nWell after three I came the next day, to find a $120+ bill for 4 suits.  The service seems a bit below par, communication skills included.\n\nAnd the price was so abominable, I just never cleaned my suits for quite some time.
