It is difficult to comment on the bill you got w/o knowing exactly what they did (did they change engine oil, and if yes, did they put in a synthetic one ?! - as a matter of fact, I would ALWAYS change the oil filter along with new oil !! - you are saving at the wrong end).
Anyway, the price you paid for the NGK BKR7ES-11 spark plug ($ 11.96 each ?) has to be qualified as a total rip-off (thus perhaps on the verge of a criminal act!). Here in Germany they'd cost you between DEM 5.00 and 7.00 each, depending on the dealer. This converts to about $3.00 each !!!).
NGK is made in Japan and you probably get them in Seattle aftermarket for about the same price as it costs here in Germany. You should find out ...
Anyway, happy driving (I own a 9-5 2.3 LPT with 31K miles on it (and amvery satisified with the car overall).
