What to put on the sign
“You will say yes to HOCO. Lucky numbers: 8, Saturday, and my number.”
One line, big letters. If it needs a second read, cut it down.
The plan
Buy a bag of fortune cookies, slide the real fortunes out with tweezers, and feed your own printed slips in. Set one on their lunch tray and let them crack it open on their own. Nervous they will grab a dud? Load the whole box so every single cookie says the same thing.
