Best thing to do is contact your major credit card company - MasterCard Visa Amex and tell them one time charge only.

Other big Red Flags are Scott Plumbing, Deans, Sun Kool, Floormasters TD, Nove, Pegasus - TV owns an equity stake therefore their prices are always higher. Be careful of contractors you may not be purchasing a one time function but maintenance where they charge you crazy prices and may not be due. My brother in law bought Nova water system charged him 600- in Sept 2019, they did not move in full time until 2020 and they returned October 2020 to change a filter $132- which is cukoo, excuse was annual filter changing

No longer do any local departments come out and replace fire detector batteries anymore.

Don’t waste 60- on local newspaper, the Sun, it is ads and real estate which has no benefit for you.
The only statement that is true is lawn services can vary by 40% in their pricing.
