I just returned from a car shop where I took the car for a test drive. This is my second time shopping this location in the past 90 days, and, while I didn't get the same salesman, I got one I'd interacted briefly with in the previous shop. I think he recognized me and thought I was ready to commit.
When we went for the test drive, he suggested we swing through a coffee shop drive-thru, and he bought me, and himself, a coffee. This is the first time this has happened to me, and for some reason, I feel guilty.
For those who've had many of these shops, and had this happen... Is this a business expense for him? Does the dealer reimburse them for favors to customers, or did that come out of his own pocket?
If he did pay for it himself, how can I pay it back without being too obvious? I love that he'd do that for customers, but feel guilty because I wasn't a real customer.
