  • DeadSkinMask, on 10/10/2007, -2/+244I got a chuckle out of this sign when I first saw it in 1989.
  • Speedy7, on 10/10/2007, -2/+140ITS A SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had a free ride... But they charged an extortionate amount once i reached the police station... And they didnt put my picture in the newspaper...
  • clark24, on 10/10/2007, -1/+98Someone should steal the sign.
  • bbschaefer, on 10/10/2007, -3/+58digg.com/pictures/comedy/signs/yellow/sarcastic?
  • titlesaysitall, on 10/10/2007, -2/+56Hmm, so you figure you get your stolen item for free and a ride back with your own chaufeur. Man, no wonder this store doesn't have coupons, their customer service far exceeds any retailer I know.
  • merreborn, on 10/10/2007, -3/+52You guys have to realize that your average digger was in diapers in 1989....
  • crackah, on 10/10/2007, -6/+53www.digg.com/pictures ?
  • sockpuppets, on 10/10/2007, -1/+48I'm still in them.
  • scabbers, on 10/10/2007, -1/+28Digg is turning into MySpace bulletin land.
  • Digitalfilm43, on 10/10/2007, -1/+23I was thinking more like 1985
  • Jumboto, on 10/10/2007, -2/+24Reminds me of a "free pair of bracelets."

    That was a nice looking sign btw. I was expecting a crappy black and white text only.
  • kevthecatslayer, on 10/10/2007, -0/+19whore ally gives a *****

    any takers?
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18*****
  • elnerdo, on 10/10/2007, -4/+20I was born in 1990.
  • JorgeGT, on 10/10/2007, -2/+18I'll be 18 in five days! Cue the blackjack! and hookers!
    ...in fact, forget the blackjack...
  • DeadSkinMask, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15Something tells me you don't get to keep the "free item"
  • catalysis, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12I suppose I will be the first

    ehm..

    ITS A TRAP!!!
  • merreborn, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12God, colored people get everything handed to 'em on a silver platter, don't they?

    It's hard being white.
  • inked, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11Digg is turning into "rate my Flickr photo"
  • turquoisefish, on 10/10/2007, -3/+13You make me feel old
  • aikimann, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9After thinking a bit, I don't think a pictures section would actually be a good idea. Then everybody and their grandmother will be posting ***** left and right. Digg will be spammed with lolcats and "the most beautiful pic you'll ever see".
  • realnerd, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Almost every store in Southern Illinois has one of these.
  • Supaman223, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9whore ally gives as hit
  • cbdgr, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Did the female shoplifter 6 stories down get this to?
    http://digg.com/offbeat_news/Female_Shoplifter_Tries_to_Escape_by_Going_Topless
  • Gimpishi, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Almost every state SOUTH of Illinois has one of these in every store.
  • xerikx, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7is this something revolutionary? i see this sign all over
  • Harrison88, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Sigh... this is old. Guess none of you have been to any of the crappy magic shops at Blackpool, UK then.
  • s1mph0ny, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Coming up next: Free glass shards for posting stupid signs on your door.
  • benitojuarez, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5I got taken to the station for stealing one hershey bar back when i was 12.
  • jkizzle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5these are everywhere....
  • orxor, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5You should sue them, that's false advertising.
  • quinlan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5No, because your picture was in my newspaper.
  • h2g242, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4yea this sign is more common than punk ass kids that dont cut their hair.

    its in like every gas station and mini mart in the tri state area
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Digg is turning into a social bookmarking site.
  • KrazyA1pha, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Actually, that's exactly why we need a pictures section -- to keep it off the front page.
  • crushfan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3We really don't actually need a picture section because StumbleUpon archives all of the pictures that are published on TEH INTERWEBS and you can simply use its toolbar to get some "FW: OMG OMG IT'S CUTE!11one" material by clicking it a time. And if Digg would have a picture section, people could release all the hatred to pictured and unquality material through Digg's comments. And I say, just leave the pictures where they belong - where they people can already easily access all of them. When it comes to standardization of Digg, well, I'm just an average user. I don't care. Ha-haa!
  • aikahanyou, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Those are pretty much in every store in Canada...
  • slobgoblin, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3What the hell is happening to this site???
    This is the one of the stupid things I wasted my time clicking on. I can not understand how people are digging this worthless *****! This sign is about as news worthy as a "Baby on Board" sign!

    What the *****!?! Seriously!!!
    I'm so pissed off right now. There has been nothing but the stupidest ***** stories lately. I may have to stop visiting this site.
  • MellerTime, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Uhh... don't you have to be 21 to gamble everywhere in the US? Not that all Diggers are in the US, of course... And why wait for the hookers, it's not like they're going to turn you down, right?
  • MikeWanDo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Or they'd just post it somewhere else, instead of the homepage.
  • gutistg, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4They don't take you to the station unless you steal more than $50. They just give you a ticket and send you on your way.
  • coviecarbine, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2the no alcohol (18) strip clubs show pussy.
  • HanSolo69, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Man, someone's never been to a 7-11.
  • CptBuck, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I saw one in 1988 except that when i robbed from the videostore it was robocop who gave me the ride. Clearly they've downsized since then.
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Why is this on the front page?
  • IllBeBack, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2These signs may be in your part of the country, but they're not in mine. Do not assume that everything you see around your city is universally used everywhere.
  • StandardsDT, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2This made the homepage?! Most stores have these signs. Even the drug fair near me has this.
  • Typhoon2009, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2"Win a free funeral"
  • Shorties, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I'll be 18 in 6 days... And no you don't have to be 21 to gamble in california its just illegal to gamble in most circumstances in california. Indian Casinos, Lottery, and Horse Races all are 18. Its a Nevada Law that makes it 21 to gamble in Las Vegas.
  • hiro, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2You've got to be kidding, this sign has been used for at least 20yrs that I know of!

    Old news is the understatement of the year
