Most retail stores do *not* take this attitude.

A person is more likely to buy something in a store if they
vist the store than if they never visit the store.

FNAC even ran a TV commercial a number of years ago reinforcing
their policy that visitors to the store are under no obligation
to buy and that they may read the books in situ without buying
them.

The clincher of the commercial was when the young boy featured
finally made his first purchase of a book.
