Refusing to participate in the GFC

I saw this sign in a shop window over the weekend.  It speaks for itself.

    Depending on the shop the sign was in, it may run the risk of alienating those customers that are feeling the effects of the GFC.

    Jarryd- Good point.

    I can see what the owner of the sign is perhaps trying to say, its innovative however I would not want to hurt the many people that have been affected by the GFC.

    The sign is in the window of a cafe. In fact, I have seen several of these over the weekend – different in words but a similar message.

    It’s actually a reflection of what many of my customers are saying. To paraphrase them, if they hear Rudd/Swan say one more time that this is the greatest #%^& in living memory one more time they will scream.

    I agree, every time WS opens his mouth the market slips back another notch.

    If you get a chance to look at todays new issue of Zoo which is $1.95 by the way, on page 15 their are two signs that could relate to this post.

    By the way I only read it for the pub ammo.

    Had something like this suggested by another local business: Recession Free Zone. Thought that was appropriate.
