Having a $5.00 "Villages Florida" license plate on the front of your car and being up north for the summer. This is the first summer in three years that i have one. Cool, out shopping or getting gas and have strangers come over and ask... "you a villager? what village? etc etc. so you get to meet all these nice people even when you're not there.

There are dozens of designs to choose from, at the square on vendor night.

Where did you find one for $5.00? The last time I priced them at LSL Market Night, they were $16.00.

7 Years ago I bought a simple cardboard front plate for $1 ... dark green background with "The Villages" in gold lettering. It still looks fine.

I think I bought it at the logo/mercantile store.

Banner mercantile has some that just say "The Villages", I believe I paid
$5. The square has them with the village names on them.

All nice unless your car is registered in a state that requires a front plate!

bought a nice green one with classy gold letting... The Villages (the way they write it on their signs) Florida underneath it. I think it is plastic. got it up at spanish springs just near the square. It is a village store selling all village stuff like clothes, hats etc. not sure if i paid five or six bucks.
