Today at about noon, a creative form of advertisement was left dangling at my front gate. Bearing the shape similar to the door hangers we get at the hotel that typically says "Make My Room" or "Do Not Disturb". Anyway a close up shot of it for your benefit....
The contents didn't really reflect the intended message that it wants to drive home. Looking at that card I couldn't be bothered really to read further, and would have thought my REAL neighbours were cuckoo.
I paid no attention until I got back from dinner round about 9.30pm and what struck me was more than half of the homes still had that door hangers still dangling from their gates!! Now this weekend happens to be a LONG weekend as the following Monday and Tuedays are public holidays and there would definitely be a number of family taking the opportunity to travel out station.
With this door hanger still dangling, I figured it would pose as a security risk to those homes who may still have it dangling by tomorrow evening or night....If I was a robber, I'd target a series of 3 houses that still has that card on the front gate by tomorrow night and pick the center house....I'd be some what assured or certain that no one has been back and perhaps give me enough window period to ease the home off some burdens....
Why can't the advertisers just leave it in the post box like normal people do....
I guess in the eyes of the advertisers...they were thinking something like this....
As for the robbers....I'd think they would love these cards to read something like this....
I wonder if there are laws to govern irresponsible dissemination of information or advertisement. Or maybe it can be charged as abetting to theft......
