I recently took my car to the shop for an oil change and they charged me 10-12 dollars more on the oil change than what the advertised price said because they said my Toyota took a special oil filter. Does this sound legit?

No. You should have been given the option to take their "special filter" and then decide to get the change done or not. What if you only expected to pay the advertised price and didn't have the cash to pay the addtional charge ? Very shady.
