“These prices are ridiculous”: Shopper spots a $115 sign at Staples. Then he finds it on Amazon for $26

A Staples shopper went viral after comparing the chain’s in-store prices to dramatically cheaper listings on Amazon.

In a TikTok posted Nov. 21, 2025, @bigbodyofficial walked through a Staples location highlighting items marked up by more than 75 percent, including a small business “open” sign priced at $115 that sells for $26 online and a paper shredder listed for $180 that costs under $30 on Amazon.

“It's hard to compete with Amazon, but like I'm not paying this,” he said.
