It's so weird that a day is relatively cheap and then overnight becomes 64?!

There's a sign that says "free parking with car wash from $19.95". When I got to the car wash area it said $45 for sedan wash and vac, which is fine. There's a hand drawn chalk sign "car wash open" with a mobile number. We call it. He says it's closed. Then he thinks. No, it's open. I will have to "get someone in to do the wash". It turns out to be the carpark attendant. He says the wash will be $50. Cash only. I'm not going to argue, it's still a decent price, especially once I consider my free parking. He tells us 2 hours. There's no queue. I accidentally leave my phone in the car, so come back 5 mins later and it is already being washed. Great. We come back in 2 hours. Pay the $50. I say here's my ticket so you can validate my free parking. He says oh that's not a thing. I say what about the sign. He says oh that's old. I say we'll you'd best take it down, but you'll have to honour my free parking. He says the best I can do is half price. I say no, you need to honour the sign. He says I'll see what he can do. He goes back to his booth and I drive to the gate. Someone else queues behind me. He comes over and puts my ticket in the machine and let's me out. So yes, I did get the deal on offer. But not without having to be way more assertive than I'd like to have to. Who knows if he's even the real car cleaning guy? The car was clean, but there were definitely 8+ spots I could easily and scratch off with my fingernail. Some interior was dusty. 4/5 clean. 5/5 dodgy!
