Growing problem in the parking lots becoming very annoying Recommendations?
 
I love The Villages, but I find there is a growing problem.

It's starting to happen more often > Someone keeps moving my vehicle in the parking lots after I park it. I'm not sure why they do it ? When I have my car, at least I can use the key fob to beep the horn or lights to help me find where they moved it to, but with my golf cart, I have to walk up and down the aisles to find it. I guess I can't complain too much because I can at least increase my step count, which for some reason has also been getting a lot lower. I think The Villages or local police should provide more security in the parking lots to help stop this annoying issue, which is clearly getting worse. Has anyone else noticed this problem, or have any other recommendations? :)

Ummm. Is this a tongue-in-cheek attempt at humor? If not, you might seriously consider seeing a medical professional about possible memory issues. Seriously.

It's a joke, but not very funny.

I did that a number of months back. Forget I had parked at Ace while shopping at Publix. I had bought something at Ace and put in the golf cart glove compartment and then gone shopping. But forgot all about that after coming out of the grocery store . Took me a while before realizing what I had done .

Have you considered attaching a colored loofah to the top of your rig? Although it makes it easier to find in the sea of carts, you may also find other things you didn't bargain for.... [ joke -> rejoke ]

Agree. This is the funniest post I have seen in quite a while. Gets the Post of the Month Award.

I see people wandering around the parking lots kind of often.

I always go for an upgrade on the car.

Use your cell phone , take a pic of the cars location, when you can not find the care check the pic, it is possible you think you left the car in another location. Of course a memory issue is possible, take care of yourself

I taught my parents to take a picture of the car and including a storefront for reference. Works everywhere even at Disney. Just because they are Older doesn’t mean can’t learn something new to adjust

That would be called a stupid joke..... not funny, just made the person posting look very mental!

Well, that's where the legend of the loofahs originated. Too many old timers forgetting where they parked, so they decorated their cart with a colored loofah to get it to stand out!
