People do at least see the signs, right?
Y'know, I was getting absolutely sick of idiots not reading our informative signs that are peppered throughout the store EVERYWHERE and then asking the same dumb ass questions to us when all they had to do was read the signs and allow us to keep just a little bit of what sanity we all have left. So, after work one day I went to the dollar tree and bought two pieces of bright red poster board, a glue stick, and glitter glue. That night I cut one in half and kept one whole and made big signs out of them. Signs that explained every little detail possible to the point of being ridiculous in some manic hope that this would solve the at least some portion of the idiot problem.
The next day I hung the smaller signs in the window and the big one on a black pole that's in the center of the store. I then peppered the store in signs that stated the wonderful red sign would answer any questions they had. And...did it work?
NO! These freaking morons still ask the same stupid questions. I even hand wrote two signs for the ones in the window with arrows that said "This sign will answer all your questions!" and people still ignored it. 
I've now devised a new tactic, I'm going to take the larger sign and smaller sign (and possibly make more signs just to get the message across) and place them right over the top of the movies on the shelves. This way, customers are at least FORCED to notice them.
And I hope it annoys the hell out of them. I'm at the point where I'm just going to start handing out flier with all the info on it as people walk in the door.
Honestly, is it really that hard to read a sign? If people bothered too then they wouldn't get pissed at us for the movies they thought were 9.99 or .99 cents because they can't read signs.
Idiots! All of them!
