There is no secret about it...

Jim Rose and I are totally up front with everybody about what it costs to put the numbers on your post lights. Somehow though I keep encountering people wanting to bargain the price of $5 downward. Here is the deal. You can drive your car to WalMart and pick up a package of numbers for about $2. Then come home and cut the numbers you need out from their square blocks. Don't forget to use an exacto knife on the interiors of numbers like 6,8,9 and zero or they won't show up at night very well. Better cut out two sets because when you go to put them on the globe it isn't as easy as you may think. At any rate after you finish stand back and admire your work... That's cool huh?
Let's see now... $2 for parts.... gas for trip to WalMart....time for shopping.... cost of exacto knife $12.... time for cutting .... time for installing.... That sure is a good deal you have there... Go for it. It doesn't hurt Jim's or my feelings at all if you would rather do it yourself. The $2 or so profit we make all goes to the Social Club treasury. WE make $0. We are motivated to do this because we beleive we can help improve all of our safety and well being. What else could there be? It sure isn't the money.
So before you ask again let me tell you folks just get them on any way you want. Jim and I will volunteer to do it for you for $5 or you can do it yourself... both ways are good. And no $5 does not include painting your post.
