A Site About Stores with Pun Names

Wok on a fish out of water.

Why should I have to live geographically close to a store just to enjoy their signage?  I shouldn?t.

Tanks A Lot is a photo blog that collects images of stores that use puns in their name.  These small business owners just wanted to be more memorable to people who walk by or see them in the phone book — little did they know that their clever storefronts could go viral.

We've all seen Asian places with "wok" in the title: If your company name contains "wok" it's required that you make a pun.  But a few prime wok puns I haven't seen.  If you catch one of these near you, where ever you are, snap a pic and send it to Tanks a Lot:

  • You Wok Like a Cowboy
  • The Fat Man Woks Alone
  • Money Talks, Bullshit Woks
  • Back In My Day, We Wokked to School
