Stickers rule (i.imgur.com)

They're custom stickers from StickerMule, which is not quite a nice company, but they have some deals they almost surely loose money on.
I've put these together:

$1 for 10:
https://www.stickermule.com/deals/4b02bdaf

$0.80 for 10:
https://www.stickermule.com/deals/f167bd20

$1.25 for 10:
https://www.stickermule.com/deals/fcde0915

$1.11 for 10:
https://www.stickermule.com/deals/66a85adf

$1.11 for 10 (Italian):
https://www.stickermule.com/deals/88e0209a

$9 for 50:
https://www.stickermule.com/deals/ee2c2ae3

Yes, that includes worldwide shipping. Each of those can be ordered just once, but somewhere I heard a legend they don't check for duplicate accounts, but I haven't tried that myself.
There's also a $1 Unixstickers pro pack (account not required)

Edit!!:

~~After 2 such orders they almost charged me EUR 18 on that $1.25 for 10, even though the checkout page did say $1.25 when paying.~~ So choose the option with proof if given option to skip it. (It will let you cancel before approving the proof.)

Edit 2: I see the problem. If choosing different currency (EUR in my case) the deal price will be converted correctly in checkout page, but not be valid. So just pay in the default currency (USD).

And I'll add a semi-related fable.

There were a group of 5 monkeys that all lived on a tropical island; they survived by climbing trees to get bananas.

One day, the monkeys are taken to a lab and placed in an enclosure that somewhat captured the original environment. The only difference was that if any monkey climbed the tree, they'd all get soaked with freezing cold water from a sprinkler system. The monkeys were forced to eat simulated banana paste from a stainless steel bowl on the ground.

Every day for the first few months, at least one monkey would try to climb the tree - either to forage or just for fun, it's irrelevant - and all the monkeys would end up soaking wet and freezing. It got to the point where if any monkey even went towards the tree, the rest would attack it. Eventually, the monkeys left the tree alone.

So the scientists removed 2 of the monkeys, and added 3 more that were freshly captured. These monkeys had no idea about the cold water, so would inevitably try to climb the tree - resulting in them being savagely attacked by the remaining original 3 monkeys.

Eventually, without even knowing why, the new monkeys left the tree alone.

The scientists then removed the 3 original monkeys, and replaced them with 3 more fresh monkeys, who were of course attacked when they tried to climb the tree.

Soon, though no monkey had ever been wet or cold in its entire existence (within this enclosure), they'd all avoid the tree that they'd depended on their entire life "because that's how it goes."

It's time to stop attacking our fellow monkeys, and break out of this lab. I want some god-damn bananas.
