He can't tell you that as it would be a violation of his ICA. Watch for hints in posts he may make to other threads. General protocol to keep from violating ICAs on forums are that the client and the company can't be named in the same thread. So elsewhere on the forum he may state something like, "I just did 5 of the new shops for XYZ." and make sure you sign upwith XYZ to see if that is the provider.
Yes $5. id more or less a slap in the face but honestly if you are stopping into that store (our red box's are located in a large chain store) anyways for what ever reason, why not snap a picture or 2 and be up $5.00 on the day?
I would not make an effort to do this shop if I was not already planning a trip to this store.
