Sarcastic and Clever Signs We Can’t Stop Laughing At

This small business isn’t mincing words. Their sign politely requests: “Please do not steal from a small business. Steal from Wal-Mart. Thank you!” It’s equal parts desperate plea and tongue-in-cheek humor, reminding you that mom-and-pop shops can’t absorb losses the way retail giants can.

Of course, stealing anywhere is still a crime—but the sign makes its point crystal clear. Support local shops, don’t rob them blind. If you must live your life like a bargain-bin outlaw, take your sticky fingers to a megacorp instead. It’s crime re-directed with a side of small-business sass.
