A very carefully worded sign

Internet Cafe sign, Commercial Drive and 7th Avenue, Vancouver, BC

This is really a very clever sign. Simple, and clever. Yes, I can do all of these things; Internet Skype, CD/DVD burning, Music, Printing, Camera, and Scanning. And the cost is only $1.00. Wow, what a great deal.

But just wait a moment. $1.00 for how long? The sign says it is only $1.00 to "use", but how long is that use? 15 minutes.

So, the sign is completely accurate, and rather misleading. Very clever.
