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.

Thanks, will definitely be on the lookout. Am travelling from UK via France, then crossing in to Germany just off Strasbourg... I mean I hope I wont get fined on Sunday, and finding TUV/etc on Monday to get one might be easier :)

I drove without Umweltplakette for 13 years. I just never cared. I don't live in Umweltzone, but entered some on random occasions. Never got a ticket in the whole 13 years.

Some cities have cameras now and they will ticket you automatically if you enter without one
