Every business has started doing this and I'm glad there is finally some consumer protection happening.. It's worse than the bronze/gold/platinum 'memberships' or 'package' schemes that have shown up everywhere. My dog's boarding place hit me with three fees on pickup (they also have like 200 permutations of packages that try monetize every possible marginal activity - taking pictures with your dog, letting them hang out with staff 'up front', allegedly watching movies with them, each individual toy or treat, etc).
It's sad that we have to look to government to solve basic stuff like this. I'd rather not regulate everything to death but the alternative is annoying shit like this. Like I could try to go to another dog boarding place, but there just aren't that many of them and they probably do the same thing. I bet they're all owned by the same private equity firm anyway.
