Default House Sign for Lamp Post

I saw at least 2 booths at the LSL fair yesterday selling the house signs that go on the lamp post. Are those the best/only places to get these signs?

Default Got ours at ........

We did a bit of pricing and the Markets of Marion were cheaper and you could pick your sign up in an hour or so.

Default Didn't last a year!

We got one from the Squares and it broke and started to hit my post in less then a year. The material is just too thin and the hole too close to the end to stand up. The vendor wouldn't do anything about it other then sell me a new one at 1/2 price. I think they are way over priced for what you get.

I fixed it my self by putting pieces of strapping metal over the holes.

Our sign says "HAVANA BLAST", but no mail is addressed that way.

My lighted sign just has my first name with 2 martini glasses (for the party girl, not because I drink martini's). I got mine from the vendor at SS, he was great, not expensive at all. I got a lighted one because its so dark at night on my street that you can't read the signs if they're not lit. I just love my sign and the vendor was great!!

Default Id on lamposts

Considering all of the hackers online as well as criminal activities everywhere, I choose to not display any form of ID on the lampost. A female's first name on the post identifies the resident is a female living alone. The last name identifies the resident as well as their address when their phone number can be found. We must be cautious these days.

The name of a home is a real NEAT idea; love it and safe too!!
