I am well known for having pet peeves and I had an encounter with one today. I have to be careful to not let little things determine my mind frame. But, I am allowed to vent about it for a minute LOL. I am just wondering why people that work in stores put price stickers in the most inconvenient places! I know, it sounds stupid, but Im serious! I bought some frames the other day and both of them had the sticker on the glass front of the frame. So after I got the frames home, I had to spend my precious time (LOL) fighting with that sticker and of course it doesnt just come off in one quick pull. But I have found a friend in my war against stickers - lighter fluid! If you put a few drops of it on the glass it steals the stickyness from the sticker and then it comes right off without leaving that nasty gluey like mess of a square. My brother first told me about this when I was complaining about that ugly glue square on the side of one of my large candles. (Again, why wouldnt they put the sticker on the bottom of the candle) Well, today I picked up a book and when I looked at the back of it - to read a preview of the book - what do you know - one of those evil stickers was in my way. I hate them! LOL And there was plenty of empty space on the back where it could have been placed, but it was inconsiderately placed right over the most important part of a book - the words!
OK, Im done venting now and I feel better already! Thanks for reading! :-)

Oh, I would hate to have the sticker on the glass of the frame! That would drive me nuts as well. The residue of the sticker being left on the glass afterwards sucks as well!
ReplyDeleteAnd you said lighter fluid helps get rid of it? Hm. I should try it some time. I have yet to remove a sticker off of my game case because I don't want to put a huge indent in the cover. Whenever I take stickers off of movies or video game cases, I always end up leaving a dent because of my nails. That sounds like a good idea. I should try it some time.
