Drive to a gas station and go to where the air compressor is. People forget them all the time. So if you look around on the ground, you're likely to find a handful.

im talking about the valve caps... ne how my coworker had a spare. i was just too damn lazy to make a stop somewhere to get them. it just pisses me off that someone stole my caps and made me go through the effort to find a replacement.

Just go to any tire center and ask them for some caps. I work in a tire center and give them away all the time. We throw them out all kinds!
