Olympus E-P1: "Cheap Smokes"

Driving through Virginia, this sign caught my eye. I always love
the different signs, stores, and people I see in rural America.

The little E-P1 and one or two lenses make a great documentary tool.
Believe it or not, I resisted the temptation to buy any smokes! :)

Great catch, I guess "political correctness" hasn't made it out there yet? BV

They know how to advertise in rural America. Your little E-P1 did a fine job. V

Roadside AdArt. That carton of Marlboro will cost you close to $50 out here, Pal!

The sign would even be more eye-catching if it shows
the Indian Chief smoking a peace pipe :-) V

You passed up a great deal on the Riverside cigarettes!

Fabulous shot but your resistance to buy is baffling and perhaps admirable..V!!
