1. A sign fixture comprising: a support beam having a first end and a second end and being supported by a product display structure;a sign holder for supporting a sign indicative of information related to a product displayed for sale;at least one bracket comprising: first and second longitudinal members having first and second ends and oriented in parallel with each other;a lateral member having a top surface and a bottom surface attached to and extending between the first and second longitudinal members at a location between the first and second ends of the first and second longitudinal members;wherein the at least one bracket includes a magnet having a top end and a bottom end, said magnet extending completely through said lateral member such that the top end of the magnet is exposed and aligned with the top surface of the lateral member and the bottom end of the magnet protrudes from the bottom surface of the lateral member; andwherein the sign holder is magnetically coupled to the top end of the magnet and the support beam is magnetically coupled to the bottom end of the magnet such that the at least one bracket couples the support beam to the sign holder. 2. The sign fixture of claim 1, further comprising a pair of legs having proximal ends for coupling to the support beam and distal ends for mating to the product display structure. 3. The sign fixture of claim 2, wherein the proximal end of at least one of the pair of legs is fixed to a bottom of the support beam. 4. The sign fixture of claim 2, wherein the support beam comprises a hollow support beam and at least one aperture extending along and through a portion of a bottom of the support beam. 5. The sign fixture of claim 4, wherein the proximal end of at least one of the pair of legs is coupled to a slide block located in the hollow support beam such that the at least one leg is laterally adjustable within the aperture extending along and through the portion of the bottom of the hollow support beam. 6. The sign fixture of claim 2, wherein the support beam comprises a hollow support beam and a first aperture extending along and through a first portion and a second aperture extending along and through a second portion of a bottom of the support beam. 7. The sign fixture of claim 6, wherein the proximal ends of the first leg of the pair of legs is coupled to a first slide block located in the hollow support beam and the proximal end of the second leg of the pair of legs is coupled to a second slide block located in the hollow support beam such that each leg of the pair of legs is laterally adjustable within one of the apertures extending along and through the first and second portions of the bottom of the hollow support beam. 8. The sign fixture of claim 1, further comprising a pair of channel members having a closed side fixed to a bottom of the support beam and an open side for accommodating a magnet, the magnet coupling the support beam to the product display structure. 9. A sign fixture comprising: a hollow support bar having a top, a bottom, a first end and a second end and including at least one aperture extending along and through a portion of the bottom;a pair of posts having proximal ends for coupling to the support bar and distal ends for coupling to a product display unit, wherein the proximal end of at least one of the pair of posts is coupled to a movable base located within the hollow support beam such that the at least one post is laterally adjustable within the aperture extending along and through the bottom of the hollow support bar;a frame member for supporting a sign indicative of information related to a product displayed for sale; andat least one H-bracket having a magnet, the at least one H-bracket includes an upper channel and a lower channel, each of the upper channel and the lower channel of the at least one H-bracket being open on at least three sides, the upper channel receives a portion of the frame member, the lower channel receives a portion of the hollow support bar, wherein the H-bracket magnetically couples the hollow support bar to the frame member. 10. The sign fixture of claim 9, wherein the at least one H-bracket comprises: first and second longitudinal elements oriented substantially in parallel with each other and having first and second ends; anda lateral element attached to and extending between the first and second longitudinal elements at a location between the first and second ends, the lateral element having a top surface and a bottom surface. 11. The sign fixture of claim 10, wherein the magnet of the H-bracket extends through a thickness of the lateral element and has a top end and a bottom end, the top end of the magnet exposed to and aligned with the top surface of the lateral element and the bottom end of the magnet protruding from the bottom surface of the lateral element. 12. The sign fixture of claim 11, wherein the top end of the magnet magnetically couples to a lower portion of the frame member, the lower portion of the frame member inserted between the first and second longitudinal elements, the lower portion of the frame member is disposed above the lateral member. 13. The sign fixture of claim 11, wherein the bottom end of the magnet magnetically couples to an upper portion of the hollow support bar, the upper portion of the hollow support bar inserted between the first and second longitudinal elements, the upper portion of the hollow support bar is disposed below the lateral member. 14. The sign fixture of claim 9, wherein the at least one aperture extending along and through a portion of the bottom of the hollow support bar comprises a first aperture extending along and through a first portion and a second aperture extending along and through a second portion of the bottom of the hollow support bar. 15. The sign fixture of claim 14, wherein the proximal ends of both of the pair of posts are each coupled to separate movable bases located in the hollow support bar such that each of the pair of posts is laterally adjustable within its respective aperture extending along and through the bottom of the support bar. 16. A sign fixture comprising: a support beam having a first end and a second end and supported by a product display structure;a sign holder for supporting a sign indicative of information related to a product displayed for sale; andfirst and second H-brackets, each H-bracket including a magnet, the magnet of the first H-bracket exerting a magnetic coupling force on a first portion of the support beam and on a first portion of the sign holder and the magnet of the second H-bracket exerting a magnetic coupling force on a second portion of the support beam and on a second portion of the sign holder whereby the magnet of the first H-bracket and the magnet of the second H-bracket magnetically couple the sign holder to the support beam, the first and second H-brackets each include first and second channels, each of the first and second channels are open on three sides. 17. The sign fixture of claim 16, further comprising a pair of legs having proximal ends for coupling to the support beam and distal ends for coupling to the product display structure. 18. The sign fixture of claim 17, wherein the proximal end of at least one of the pair of legs is fixed to a bottom of the support beam. 19. The sign fixture of claim 17, wherein the support beam comprises a hollow support beam and at least one aperture extending along and through a portion of a bottom of the support beam. 20. The sign fixture of claim 19, wherein the proximal end of at least one of the pair of legs is coupled to a slide block located in the hollow support beam such that at least one leg of the pair of legs is laterally adjustable within the aperture extending along and through the bottom of the hollow support beam.
