in smaller type it would say:
"When YOU entered this Cigar Store, you granted permission to publish videos of your shopping habits."

Always a good idea but it won't be read. People do not read signs, especially thieves. They seem to always be focused on getting away with their crime and not much else. There are a number of signs like this outside my local b&m and if asked, 1 maybe 2 out of 10 actually reads it. It's very frustrating.

I'll say it again, it's alway the people you wouldn't expect and they usually have plenty of money to pay.

funny story, I walked in to my neighborhood B&M about an hour ago and the owner had a drill in one hand and his work clothes on. He was installing a few additional cameras in the humi. Apparently he caught some loser earlier just this week. I mentioned this discussion and we both agreed that stealing cigars is probably one of the dumbest things to get busted for.

I can't really imagine owning a cigar shop...everything out in the open, and generally most store owners try to be extremely welcoming for obvious reasons. It's sad to see that some people (as always) take advantage of that situation...
