You stated about the 10 percent off for permanent display?? Never heard that in the 7 years we've been using them. Besides permanent display of anything is not allowed per your deed.

Massey leaves signage also ... guess that has nothing to do with advertising.
Drive through the neighborhoods south of 466A in Pinellas and you will see houses with these small signs with Dean advertising. They are about 1 foot by 1 foot and they are placed in the frontyard. They have been up at these houses for six months straight and they have nothing to do with an application and they are not taken down after two days. I was speaking to one of my neighbors and he got tired of having the sign in his very front yard and had put it by the shrubs around hs house where the sign would be partially hidden. He said he got a 10 per cent reduction for his Deans services. There are five houses near him with these Deans advertising signs. I use Massey's and the only sign they have are the little cardboard signs that are placed in a plastic holder after an application. The homeowner removes those after the application dries.
