My BYC bumper stickers sure have lasted,, but darn,,,

[WriterofWords]

I didn't realize just how much my bumper stickers had changed. They didn't fade though, they have cracked a bit, but they are almost black and white now. As many years as those have been on my truck they are well worth the price! And I think they are on sale right now,, hmmm might need to replace them. I had to two new ones stuck on the board in my classroom and one of the kids asked if I was going to put them on the truck, so we took them out to my truck and wow,, talk about a difference. These are the magnetic ones.

BYC

They notice everything! They caught a misspelled word on here on the hatching page, they noticed the ones on the tailgate cracking, but they've been on there for years!

I think the miss spelling was on purpose......right?

 

[WriterofWords]

It's not spelled wrong what do you mean?

 

[caspernc]

No chicken talk. OR phonics! Yeah its wrong ....but you can tell the word. I have 2 sons that are dyslexic. Been there done that. and Now I just don't see spelling anymore. One is mirror image......talk about a chalange and the other does not SEE short a sounds, it just does not come out on the paper through his pencil. Page is P-A-G-E but pack is P-C-K.

I don't care for putting bumper stickers on my car - for the precise reason that they don't stay nice for very long.

My solution: magnetic sheets. I put my bumper stickers onto magnetic sheets and THEN put them on my truck/car....then I can remove them when they don't look so nice anymore.

 

[WriterofWords]

Those are magnetic, I just put the new ones under the old ones to show the difference. I never put stickers anywhere on paint, even my Army and Navy stickers for Steven and Ricky are the 4" round ones and are on the glass. They remove easily that way.
