Shelf sign systems and methods of making and using same

1. A shelf sign system, comprising:

a base portion having a shelf member configured to be secured to a shelf, an extender extending from said shelf member, and a sign receiver arranged at an end of said extender opposite said shelf member, said sign receiver comprising a head having a curved outer surface and two grooves defining a neck, a width of said neck being less than a width of said head, said shelf member comprising a groove between said extender and said shelf member;

a first sign portion configured to be removably coupled to said base portion, each of two opposing surfaces of said first sign portion configured to be printable, said first sign portion having a longitudinal coupling opening having a laterally extending enlarged central aperture; and

a second sign portion configured to be removably coupled to said sign receiver, a shape of said second sign portion being disparate from a shape of said first sign portion;

wherein, said first sign portion is removably coupled to and suspended from said base portion whereby said head extends through said coupling opening such that said head rests in front of said sign portion and at least a portion of said extender extends behind said sign portion.

2. The shelf sign system of claim 1 , wherein said extender is configured to extend from said sign receiver at any one of a plurality of angles.

3. The shelf sign system of claim 2 , wherein said base portion is configured to simultaneously retain a plurality of sign portions.

4. The shelf sign system of claim 1 , wherein said first sign portion is laminated.

5. The shelf sign system of claim 1 , wherein said shelf member is configured to be adhesively secured to said shelf.

6. The shelf sign system of claim 1 , further comprising a second groove between said extender and said shelf member to facilitate bending of said extender.

7. A method of making and using a shelf sign system, comprising:

providing a shelf sign system, comprising:

a base portion having a shelf member configured to be secured to a shelf, an extender extending from said shelf member, and a sign receiver arranged at an end of said extender opposite said shelf member, said sign receiver comprising a head having a curved outer surface and two grooves defining a neck, a width of said neck being less than a width of said head, said shelf member comprising a groove between said extender and said shelf member;

a first sign portion configured to be removably coupled to said base portion, each of two opposing surfaces of said first sign portion configured to be printable, said first sign portion having a coupling opening having an enlarged central aperture; and

a second sign portion configured to be removably coupled to said sign receiver;

suspending said first sign portion from said base portion by passing said head through said coupling opening and rotating one of said first sign portion and said base portion such that said head rests in front of said sign portion and at least a portion of said extender extends behind said sign portion;

wherein, a shape of said first sign portion is disparate from a shape of said second sign portion.

8. The method of making and using a shelf sign system of claim 7 , further comprising removably coupling a plurality of sign portions to said base portion such that each of said plurality of sign portions are simultaneously retained by said base portion and indicia printed on each of said plurality of sign portions is visible.

9. The method of making and using a shelf sign system of claim 7 , further comprising bending said extender to cause said extender to extend from said base portion at an angle to allow for said first sign portion suspended from said base portion to extend at a lateral distance from said shelf member.

10. The method of making and using a shelf sign system of claim 7 , further comprising laminating said first sign portion.

11. The method of making and using a shelf sign system of claim 7 , further comprising printing indicia on said each opposing surface of said first sign portion.

12. The method of making and using a shelf sign system of claim 7 , further comprising adhesively securing said shelf member to said shelf.

13. The method of making and using a shelf sign system of claim 7 , further comprising printing indicia on each side of said base portion.

14. The method of making and using a shelf sign system of claim 7 , wherein said first sign portion is in the shape of an arrow.

15. A shelf sign system, comprising:

a base portion having a shelf member configured to be secured to a shelf, an extender extending from said shelf member, and a sign receiver arranged at an end of said extender opposite said shelf member, said sign receiver comprising a head and two grooves defining a neck, a width of said neck being less than a width of said head, said shelf member comprising a groove between said extender and said shelf member;

a first sign portion configured to be removably coupled to said sign receiver, each of two opposing surfaces of said first sign portion configured to be printable, said first sign portion having a coupling opening; and

a second sign portion shaped disparately from said first sign portion and configured to be removably coupled to said base portion;

wherein, said first sign portion is removably coupled to and suspended from said base portion whereby said head extends through said coupling opening.

16. The shelf sign system of claim 15 , wherein said extender is configured to extend from said sign receiver at any one of a plurality of angles.

17. The shelf sign system of claim 16 , wherein said extender is configured to simultaneously retain a plurality of sign portions.

18. The shelf sign system of claim 15 , wherein said first sign portion is laminated.
