I've only ever seen them in Walgreens, CVS, and McDonald's parking lots. Blinking away with the brightest blue LED all fucking night.

Seen in Kentucky at gas stations.

Meijers have then, and I've seen them in some industrial lots too.

They are kind of almost somewhat reasonable on those job sites where they’re almost done building the apartment complex, but maybe only because it’s so temporary

This is an insane comment. There is absolutely nothing temporary about these. They may be in that lot temporarily, but it won't move more than 100 meters before it meets its destination.

These are valuable. Deface and steal them.

Maybe they're used differently in different parts of the world. I've only ever seen one of these and it was a temporary location at a construction site.

They are in every single shopping mall parking lot by me. Need to go to Home Depot, one of these. Target, you guessed it, another one. Maybe you need to go to the grocery store, there’s another one there for you. Every single place near me has them.

I think I've seen these in LA.

Always wondered whats the use case. If I see these in the parking lot, no deals inside are pulling me there enough to stop by.

I work in a suburb of Cincinnati and the car dealership right across the road from my office has a couple of these. I can see them from my desk and it makes me seethe.
