Fed up with rising prices — on everything from groceries to gas — thousands of ordinary Americans are silently protesting the Obama administration at supermarkets and gas pumps with sticky notes.
From the group’s Facebook page:
Purchase a pad of large sticky notes. Write on each one, “How’s that Hope & Change working out for you?” Every time you stop to fill your vehicle with gas, place your sticky note somewhere on the pump before you drive away. DO NOT be destructive in ANY way! Place your sticky note somewhere, so as not to impede the next customer‘s ability to read the pump’s digital readout.
After placing your sticky note, please consider taking a digital picture, then uploading it to our wall. Please tell us in which city and state the picture was taken. This is meant to be a “quiet” protest by our silent majority of Americans, to be served upon this administration!!

Fantastic! I went grocery shopping today and left behind a few yellow "hope & change" Post-it notes, LOL. Fortunately I didn't have to pump gas today. Price at our local Gulf station: $4.19/gal... yikes.
This is such an awesome idea.
Hey, that's OK. In this case, I think the more threads, the merrier! FReepers need to see this and take part... I agree, it's an awesome idea.
I went grocery shopping today and left behind a few yellow "Hope & Change..." sticky notes... ;-)
Will leave more behind tomorrow on my way to Boston.
Love it!
Bump!
I have seen a mentions of a theme called URLS @ Urinals. It sounds like a similar idea to this.
They post web addresses and short messages at urinals in public places. The men see and read them as they stand there completing their business; a captive audience I suppose.
This is a GREAT idea. I’m on it.
LOL Love it! Going to the store after a while to grocery shop. This will be fun!!
Just did one at my local gas station....damn, felt good.
I believe there is a Face Book page :)
