I am pretty sure it is a "thing" people do similar to like tha Halloween thing where you "boo" people. I saw it on our town's police blotter where a lady was all freaked out and tuners out it is like a " chain" thing done by neighbors and then you,in turn, Do it to others.



I was going to say the same thing

it is a 'thing', i've heard of it with all sorts of garden accessories as well.
You can do it with flamingos for charity too

if you've only been there 4 months, it might be a sort of 'welcome to the neighborhood' type of thing. Or you can take the gnomes and then put them on someone elses lawn and pass the game along

We had our yard "forked" by kids last month. I'd prefer the gnome! Chat Icon

I think it's hysterical and awesome. I would take pics and then "regift" them to another neighbor.

Maybe it's a friend playing a joke on you. My dad has a bunch of gnomes in his yard and one year my sister and I "kidnapped them" lol



we thought about this, but it's so random! and i would say only about 10 of our friends know where we live

plus, yesterday it obviously happened while i was home, bc i was home ALL day

and idk if the neighbors would do anything like this yet, bc we've only lived here 4 months Chat Icon

it's a conundrum!




I think it's the neighbors way of saying "welcome to the neighborhood"....sounds innocent enough.
I agree with a pp to place them in all funny positions.

I was originally going to say friends but you said you doubt it. I like the neighbot thing. Maybe it's something they do in that condo area to welcome the new people.

I think this is super funny yet creepy - i don't like people coming close to my "personal space" so i'd be a little perturbed by it. You have to update the thread if you solve the mystery Chat Icon

LMAO! That is great! I would put them in weird positions to surprise them Gomers when they next attack....



Yeah. I might put them in weird.. maybe comprimising positions to see what happens. After dark and move them first thing in the AM so that the neighbors don't see them.

We picked a random house to harass.. silly harmless stuff.. when we were kids. Sounds like this is happening to you.
