Ha!
Thats exactly the problem I faced!
I called 3  different repair shops that I was friends with .I heard 'she
stops here on thursday nights, around 5:15" or "She's here on Wednesdays at
noon" and I'd show up an hour early, wait 2 hours, and no lady. The shop
would then say "well.....i guess you caught her at an odd time".
Then I started asking random shops when they come....
I'd arrive at the predestined time for those shops and "just miss her".

It was terrible. I gave up. I'll buy it online!
Thanks for the links guys!
