OWENSBORO, KY (KTRK) -- A smoke shop in Tennessee is instituting a new policy: no sweaty money accepted.

A sign on the door reads, in part, "Due to rising temperatures, we will not be accepting boob or sock money."

The Tobacco Road store manager, Cindy Collins, said, "Some of them like to bring me some soggy money. They dig deep into their not 'so-called pockets' to bring me some nasty money that we don't want to accept anymore."

Collins says business has gone up since the policy was adopted, and most customers think the sign is funny.
