El aviso mas notable que he visto recientemente es lo siguiente... The most notable warning I have seen lately is the following one,

                          ****Notice to Thieves****

1. We only have enough cash in this house to get through the day. 2. Nor do we have jewelry 3. Nevertheless, if you do decide to rob us, please do it without violence, ring the bell and we'll let you in. We promise not to call the police for at least 15 minutes after you have left. Thanks in advance for your understanding.
