A lot of the smaller repair shops here were i am have signs like those.
I don't think they felt guilty. In 2008, i bought $1100 worth of truck
tires at a Firestone shop. He noticed one of my brake lights had burnt
out. I said might as well throw a bulb in while i'm here.
Charged me the $2.49 for it.
I thought after dropping $1100 that might not get on the bill, oh well.
