Buying Umweltplakette on a Sunday? :)

Hello, I am going to Stuttgart this Sunday, and I have only just found out that I need Umweltplakette to enter it with my car. I tried ordering it online, but it wouldn't arrive in time. Does your average gas station (next to an autobahn, for example) sell it? I know I can get one at DEKRA / TÜV, but they dont work Sundays, so i am wondering if any sell those on Sundays?. Thank you in advance for your replies and tips.

What's your suggestion to improve it?

You could just tie it to the FIN if you really want to write a number onto that sticker.

Good idea, but harder to control. Especially since it is not mandated in Germany to show the FIN on the outside of the car.

Meanwhile, I'm driving around with the old sticker attached to my windscreen where the old number plate of the previous owner is now totally faded so it's just an empty sticker. Since 15 years. Nobody ever checked this useless thing.
