Yes, you can empty my bank account, go right ahead

What ended up being the problem with your car you might ask? It was the alternator. Did we think it was the alternator in the very beginning on Tuesday but was told it wasn't? Yes. This was fixed and replaced and cost almost $400. Then, I was asked if I wanted some other things done with my car having to do with fluids, flushing system, fixing dirty and old problems. I said, sure, why not, you already have it there might as well. No, I did not ask how much it would cost. I am an idiot. But, he also didn't tell me how much it would be, and it sounded like it wouldn't be all that expensive. Flash forward to our call after the car was fixed....."your total comes to 700 and some odd dollars." What?!?! How did it go up that much? Well, apparently this whole fluid flushing process is quite the expensive procedure. So now, we are $700 poorer than we were. Yay for us! I'm not even going to go into the whole explanation about how when I went to pick up my car (after the dealership was closed) that it was locked with no key and no receipt......I may just have to burn the place down....
