+1 on everyone else comments. That's why I do my own alignments. Nothing special - just a tape measure and some patience, as one would prolly have to make adjustments a few times to get it right. Still, my opportunity cost for an hour of labor and short test drives is a lot less than what an alignment job would go for.

FWIW, you can even check camber on your own too. All you need is a level surface to park on, a L square, tape measure or ruler that measures up to the edge, and a scientific calculator.
