Does anyone use car magnets or decals for Rover?

I was thinking of having a decal (or a smaller magnet) made up for my car -- advertising my http://Rover.com url and code. Other than from Rover, has anyone had a decal created? From where? Was it expensive? I've heard bad things about some of the magnets on the cars actually taking the paint off when the magnet was removed -- that's why I'm thinking more of a window decal. Thoughts?

Hi! Unfortunately, according to the terms of using the URL/code "Sitters and hosts may affix the promotion code only on printed materials purchased through the Rover Print Store," so not sure if you'd want to get the Rover-made magnet or not. I'm thinking about it myself but I wish it was smaller!

I did buy the Rover car magnets from the Rover store. 2 magnets for about 50.00. No issues with car paint or anything, but also I don't leave them on all the time. My only issue with them is that your sitter URL is so small at the bottom that it just blends in. It advertises Rover predominantly.

I agree with Kathy. My promo code is so small. People go to Rover and don't even bother inquiring HOW to use. I have to contact Rover after my people already booked.

I love the magnets. No problems pulling the paint off also people see them clearly. I also keep business cards in my car so when someone sees my magnet I can hand out business cards as well.

I got the window decal through the Rover shop 3 years ago and now they don't do them anymore and it makes me really sad. I get a lot of attention with it. Sadly, it's begining to chip in some spots, And I don't like the look of the magnets at all.

I got a magnetic sign for my car made at vistaprint for a charity I work with, and I really like it. It's a sheet that just sticks to your car and comes off easily. You can design your own or use their template designs. It's been awhile so I don't remember the exact cost, but it wasn't too expensive.

You can't put your promo code or the Rover logo directly on any advertising materials you create yourself. However, I've seen lots of people put something like "contact me for $20 off your first visit" to advertise that there is a discount. You can put your URL on anything, just not the Rover logo.

Cari is correct. You can't use Rover's logo but you can list profile link.....which is what you want to focus attention on anyways! Vistaprint is amazing. Mine was about $15 (used coupon)

Ive had it about 6 months. Still strong magnetic and have no idea how it would even remove paint?! I leave it on about 80% of the time. Driven on interstate etc, colors still good.
