I appreciate the Providence Place Mall parking lot for being just a short walk from work, for providing a roof so on snowy days I don't have to brush off my car and for being open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.What I don't appreciate, however, is them leaving a note on my windshield if I have ANYTHING in plain sight inside. "Together we can make a difference! Lock your car. Take your keys. Hide your belongings." Really? Who doesn't take their keys?
I am grateful that they're concerned about the potential of someone breaking into my car to steal my things but they are drawing more attention to the items inside by leaving this note.See the pictures above.
As much as I'm concerned about someone stealing a yellow, plastic hangar or an empty water bottle or a "just came from the dentist" kit - toothbrush, toothpaste and floss - if my car was broken into, these things might cost me a whopping $20 to replace. Clearly, there's no value requirement for these notes to be put under windshields.
I can understand if I left out a wallet or a diamond ring or a baby...but a toothbrush? Really?
