(2,332 posts)Ostracized the idiots who demonstrated over-the top-TSF displays, after a house on the market lost out with a buyer willing to pay over the list price (we live in a super-desirable neighbourhood). The elderly couple were selling because they needed to downsize for financial reasons, and losing out on that extra $$$ was the proverbial bridge too far for a predominantly empty-nest neighbourhood. Even though it's not designated as such, this is very much a AARP-aged housing division, with our homes as nest eggs for our golden years. You don't cut into home values here. Simply isn't done.
And so the neighbourhood turned on the traitors, and even those morons soon got the message: Stop being scumbags...or else.
Haven't had a stupid display since.
