No, I obviously wouldn't walk into a bank with a helmet on! That's just silly. But a petrol station is a bit different don't you think? Apart from the hilarious situation where you could wear a head-cover under your helmet, you could also go to the petrol station dressed like a "hoodie" with a pair of shades and the typical slouch. Absolutely no chance of being recognised on CCTV, but this would be acceptable as far as the pump attendants are concerned.
It's all bollox and I will not be removing my helmet when others are allowed to cover their faces in one way or another.
BTW, I've got a Shoei Flip-Front but I find them to be much heavier than my full-face helmet. But why should you have to buy one anyway??
