Seems like every time they will come up with something you need. Pull your service manual out of your glove box and review it before the next oil change. When they recommend a transmission flush at 30,000 miles, ask them why the manual recommends it at 60,000, 75,000, or whatever.
They'd have a tough time flushing the transmission on our Prius. It's a sealed unit and from what I have been told, never needs servicing.
