Gnome On The Go
Have you ever heard the urban legend of a gnome who would disappear from their owners gardens, and weeks later they receive postcards from the thieves who took their gnomes to exotic destinations, or seen the movie Amelie? Well, one couple actually were so inspired that they set up a game, featuring their own garden gnome Milo, and everybody can play. All you need to do is buy a gnome ... but not just any gnome. Gnome On The Go gnomes are large magnets, shaped in the image of Milo, and made from durable outdoor magnet material.
Gnome On The Go gnomes can travel in many different ways. Because they are magnetized, they stick on cars, trucks, or any other metallic surface, so if you are planning to travel, you and take your gnome with you! Then you take photos of your gnome during your trip, and go to www.GnomeOnTheGo.com to enter a gnome sighting. You can enter the current location of your gnome, and post a photo of him on location.
Not taking a trip soon? Let your gnome find his own way by giving him to a friend to take along on a journey, or just walk outside and stick him on a car with foreign registration plates. The gnome has instructions on the bottom telling anyone who finds him how to enter his current location.
Each gnome is assigned a unique tracking number called a Gnome-Code. Those lucky few who are fortunate enough to meet your gnome along his travels can report his whereabouts and upload photos using this Gnome-Code.
