Up-sell
When your dealer bestows upon you, out of the goodness of his heart, a free bag of better/more expensive product that makes what you usually get from him now seem like a bag of crappy-ass shit. Of course he would deny trying to Up-Sell, but is hoping to turn your usual $100 order into a $200 order, having shown you what you are missing. He might also step up the game by making sure your $100 bag now goes down in quality each time you buy, just enough to be noticed by you but not seem obviously intentional by him.
up-sell defense
The act of constantly saying "no" or "no, thank you" or "I don't need that" to sales people who persistently try to up-sell you additional services or add-ons during a point of sale or negotiation of service(s).
So after 10 mins of playing up-sell defense I am totally exhausted. Mind you, I just want a car wash. If I wanted to get up sold and haggled out, I would have gone to the swap meet for some churros and butterfly knifes. How many times to I have to say no, I don't want that super wax?

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
