My small business was a finalist for an award in a local newspaper's "best of" poll.  Less than 12 hours after the announcement was made, this guy calls and asks if we want to commemorate our award with a plaque.  I know this is not a unique business model, but it's kind of annoying.  I didn't ask about prices, but I'm guessing it was not going to be cheap.  If I need a plaque, I'll just go get it myself.
