5. Don’t sell clothing on a Sunday in Penn., New Jersey, USA

We are continuing our list of most ridiculous and weird laws in the world with the number 5 – unfortunately, Sunday is a very unprofitable day for all you clothing store owners in New Jersey. According to the New Jersey Statutes Section 40A:64-1, “certain sales” are forbidden, and that includes partaking in “the business of selling clothing or wearing apparel”, and the punishment for doing so might end up making a huge dent on your pocket. For selling any article of clothing on Sunday, you will have to pay a fine of not less than $250, and it gets worse on subsequent offenses, such that you might even end up paying a $5000 fine and spending six months in prison on your fourth offense.
