What's this "add a little bit of gas" bit I keep hearing about?

Doesn't anybody fix leaks these days?

It's all I can do to keep a straight face when I'm in a place like a
thrift store, and I hear a salesman tell a customer: "This
[refrigerator] works fine. Our repair guy had a look at it, and all
it needed was a shot of Freon".

The unit had run for nearly 25 years with no
service. Not much of a leak. Actually he was
hesitant about the need to add any Freon but after
repeating some test put some in. And no, he
wasn't one of the guys that carrys a five pound
can, squirts some in the air and then charges $10
per pound for for 2-3 pounds.
