Is that their recommendation for steel valve stems? And do they put a "life expectancy" on them? (They may say "forever" at the sales desk, but a call on the phone saying you've already got some, & were wondering if they ever need replacing, may yield a different answer.)
KeithR's got the right idea: call around. I've found that some small, independent shops will include all the add-ons in their prices, where the National Discount Chain Stores choose to nickel-&-dime you until their prices are equal or higher. ("Yeah, the coffee's free, but the air yer breathin' is the same stuff we put in the tires, so we hafta charge ya for breathin' our supply of inflation materials ...")
