Local corner-shops have been known to do it for regulars. It’s less common now, because of people abusing the trust, but it does happen. Again, under the supposition that you’re at least somewhat known to the staff and reliable enough to pay when you can.

Do you not remember the classical anti-credit slogan ‘Don’t ask for credit as refusal often offends’?
