What do y'all use for signs at your markets? Last year I printed out paper signs from my computer and taped them to the containers I had the produce in. Didn't work very well for a bunch of reasons. They got wet and crumpled, people had trouble seeing them and I had to redo them whenever I changed the price.

Most other people at my market don't use signs but I think people appreciated mine and I just read Lynn Brycinski's book on farmers markets and she had a whole chapter about signs and how important they are.

I was thinking of using laminated note cards on a stick of some sort and then writing the prices on them with a dry-erase marker so I could change them. But I thought I'd check here first for good ideas before I went ahead.

Thanks in advance.

Jeff
