“‘Accidentally’ buy the potato chips your spouse doesn’t like so you don’t have to share”

A jocular supermarket store sign has been printed on many images:
 
“Store Tip!!!
‘Accidentally’ buy the potato chips your spouse doesn’t like so you don’t have to share.”

 
“Accidentally buy the potato chips your spouse doesn’t like so you don’t have to share” was posted on Twitter by Eddy on July 19, 2015. “Prankster Posts Hilarious Signs At East LA Supermarket” was aired by KCAL9 (CBS, Los Angeles, CA) on July 28, 2015, crediting Jeff Wysaski on Tumblr for the sign. “The Tonight Show’ Shares Hilarious Real Signs” was posted on Yahoo! News on September 7, 2016.

EAST LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — A local blogger is taking credit for some quirky signs that appeared at a Vons grocery store in East L.A.
 
Jeff Wysaski says on his Tumblr account “Obvious Plant” that he tagged the aisles with shopping tips, including food-related pick-up lines and other ways to play with your food.
 
One such gem: “‘Accidentally’ buy the potato chips your spouse doesn’t like so you don’t have to share.”

Some signs were downright clever, like “Animal hospital, we love pets, we shih tzu not.” And some were informative, like this sign at a grocery store: “Accidentally buy the potato chips your spouse doesn’t like so you don’t have to share.”
