Mall Plants

While in the mall last week looking for some letterboxing supplies I noticed they had two H3 Hummers on display.  Considering this is an outlet mall, gas is at $3.35/gallon, and these things get 19MPG on the freeway, I was pretty disgusted.  But it did give a brilliant (I think) idea....

I'd plant a special Limited Time Only letterbox called Gas Guzzler ON one of the Hummers!  Plus, I already had the perfect stamp image download to my desktop. (It's not family friendly, so I won't describe it here, but it shows what happens to people who buy gas guzzlers like these). 


Well, I did it today and you can find the clues on Atlas Quest.  This box will be retired on May 30, 2006 as the mall clerk I spoke with couldn't be sure the Hummers would be there past Memorial Day.

While I was there I also planted ANOTHER mall box called Cop Shop.  Clues for that one are also on AQ.


Planting Cop Shop was tough due to lunchtime traffic (bad timing on my part), but planting Gas Guzzler was even harder as it turns out these big "tough" vehicles have almost zero exposed steel!  Almost every part of the reachable undercarriage (bumpers, wheel wells, etc) is PLASTIC!!
