Dots on mailboxes

[ljk]

found one on mine about 3 weeks ago(more of noticed), round, 1" dia, yellow selfsticky back with hi-vis reflective coating.

I peeled it off not thinking too much about it. today I got home, there's a fresh white one on the same spot. I peeled it off again then drove around the neighborhood, found 4 other homes have white and blue dots on their mailboxes. There are no more than 25 houses in our subdivision.

Is this something about perps scouting the neighborhood?

Google says it's FEMA.

Do you get a newspaper?

Do you take a newspaper?

I think our paper guy put them on to know at a glance whose box he was supposed to leave one. I'll have to check, but I think since we dropped it, there's no longer a dot there.

 

[ljk]

yes. it makes sense.

 

[atvdave]

You nailed it. We only get the Sunday paper so our sticker is a different color.

The color denotes which list your on .

Maybe it's the way the mail carriers tag the boxes of people who don't give the carrier a nice Christmas gift.

I always give a nice box of candy to my carrier and I have a gold dot on my box. The other colors must be for variations of...........loser.

It's for the paper where I live... The sticker is on my paper box though, not the mailbox.

I've got a news paper box on my mail box pole. I haven't gotten the paper in 11-12 years. I've asked the paper to take the paper tube back. My mail box was ran over about 10 years ago. It broke it. I tossed the tube then a few weeks later I notice the paper tube was back on it. Must be wishful thinking on there part to assume I ever want to get the paper again.

Now I gotta go look to see what color dot I have on my box so I can see what camp I'm going to be sent to.

You are right, it is FEMA, white dots go the Beech Grove and no one really knows what happens to the one's with the yellow dots.
