    Unless it’s a sticker for a skateboard brand or punk band, in which case, straight on the nearest street sign.

    The trick is to cut out the sticker (with the film underneath) and use paste gum to just place it where you want it. You can then remove it and stick it somewhere else whenever you want.

      Depends on the type of sticker. They sell big stickers individually in a lot of places and some places have custom-made specialized stickers which they will sell individually.

      When I was a kid, there was a kiosk in the mall that had dozens of sticker rolls and you could pull off as many as you liked from any roll you wanted and buy them. That was awesome.

        Upload that motive to an online copyshop and oder in bulk.

          I’m guessing that’s exactly how they do it. But they still sell them individually to their customers. The customers seem willing to pay or they wouldn’t keep selling them.

          You also have situations like a band selling a sticker. They’re not going to sell you a roll of stickers.

      See I’d argue if I buy a single sticker it was with purpose and I know exactly where I am going to put it (car, laptop, mug, whatever…). But if it’s a random sticker given to me I’d agree with OP.

        Just buy a pack. They’re stickers. They cost nearly nothing to manufacture. Me and my friends upload sticker motives to Eastern European online copyshops all the time and order 100 at a time, then split the bill. It’s dirt cheap.

    I used to be like this but then started pre-deciding items that would be just plastered with stickers so I can just buy whatever cool stickers I want, knowing there’s a place for them.

    My water bottle and laptop for example are now covered in stickers

    I have a sticker I want to make into a Christmas ornament. It’s an image of santa on the toilet. It’s been in the drawer for, uh, how long have I been married? A while.

    The secret is to just have a sticker area and then cover it in shit

    That’s why the one wall in my little office nook is covered in anime characters and such

    Meanwhile, my toddler will immediately place a sticker on literally the first thing they see. 🫠
