Lightly manned stores need an occasional break. Maybe for change for the cash drawer. Maybe for a Cafe Mocha Venti to keep spirits and service high for the balance of a long shift. Here a catalog page becomes the backdrop for a “Will Return” note. Far more eye-catching and professional than a naked note. Do your “Will Return” notices look as good, or entice customers to wait?
