Boy, I'm glad the owner put a sticker on the mailbox next to me. Makes my mailbox easier to find!

They are supposed to be tacky. That is why they stick to the mailbox.

I also use my neighbor's sticker to locate my mailbox. It's the same reason I didn't buy any palm trees. I can look at my neighbor's trees any time I want.

Not sure how many Brits are in TV, but have traveled the world so have had the opportunity to drive on the left. I did almost get hit by someone thinking they were in opposite world while on the MMP though. More than likely an ID10T drunk leaving Sawgrass.

Best post this thread. At my parents mailboxes someone late at night plastered political stickers on mailboxes.

Not sure if they were trying to give a hint it looked bad, or wanted someone to rethink how to vote. Really angry folks at mail pickup next morning, plus too forever to remove

Glad you feel that way, that means no lawn ornaments in your yard or anything else that goes against the deed restrictions. Hope you can share that with your neighbors.

Well if you see a sticker with a picture of an upside down colander with strands of spaghetti slithering out of it, and underneath it says "WWHNAD?" - it's probably my mailbox. I'm a Pastafarian, and that jumble of letters means "What would His Noodly Appendage Do?"

R'amen.

In the new areas stickers are not allowed

Really? Because I live in a newer area (Newell) and I have stickers (along with a bunch of other people) and no one has said anything.

First amendment to the Constitution? Who decided mailbox stickers cannot be political or say what you believe.

Who would care??? Sorry I won’t answer that due to in my identity my leaning one way or the other.

In your leaning do not fall down, hard at our age to get back up

:1rotfl::1rotfl: Yep fit right in with those who play no golf, don't take any lessons, don't swim, stay out of the sun, don't play pickle-ball or shuffle board, don't volunteer at their favorite charity, dance, bike, fish, or...... just people with nothing pressing to do but study the postal station pigeon hole boxes, there's a hobby for everyone here, that's the great part of a senior community...LOL ! From a different era, but when you have time on your hands, read the great James Michener's Recessional about Florida retirement living. Quite a departure from his great novels like Texas, Mexico, Hawaii, Space, etc. etc. etc.
