On a recent visit I was backing out of a parking place in Walmart lot and a stack of carriages leaped into my back bumper. It left quite a ding in the bumper and I figured I just get a round or oblong stick on patch which has "The Villages" logo. Kept checking around at various places and even went to the Lake Sumter Villages store but found nothing suitable. Anybody have any experience with finding something similar I could buy on the next trip down?
Thanks

you can get those oval white 'International country code' stickers with blank insides
then get two vinyl letter stickers 'TV' from either Ace , a 'signs in an hour/stationary/ or we-pak-it-and-make-keys places.
These are already available

Or have a hundred printed custom and sell 'em to the rest of us.
and you can add the 'The Villages, Florida - America's Friendliest Home Town'
in the fine print on the bottom

A shout out to you for making the lemonade and not whining nor looking for someone at blame, even though we are not fans of wallyworld whatsoever
There are two kinds of cars in Parking lots - those that have dings and those that will have them
one final thought - with a TV oval use discretion in how you look and where you go
One reference to this were the parents of a teen whom they thought was going into chatrooms about television.

Those stickers were very popular in Calif. I lived in Belmont Shore, and had one on my car that had "BS" on it, and "Belmont Shore" in much smaller print underneath. From the road, you could only see the BS. When I moved here, can't tell you how many times I was asked about the "BS" on my car. Someone I worked with scraped it off without my permission, claiming it was offensive :sigh:

I saw a bumper sticker the other day that said:
Paddle faster, I hear banjos.
I'm sure it would be a hit with the locals. :icon_twisted:

A little off topic, but I was picturing baby carriages. Where you are from may select the word you choose. We always call them carts or grocery carts. My daughter in law said where she was from they said buggies. Haven't heard "carriage" for groceries.

From my younger days when I used to scour the parking lot at a local A & P pushing them up a large hill I used to call them many different names.......None suitable to be printed here.:1rotfl:

Great ideas, thanks for the web sites. Seeing that I couldn't find these anywhere and The Villages is renowned for terrible drivers I may buy in bulk and set up a stand with the vendors at town square:icon_wink:
