Ammo can stash note stickers
 
Stash notes for geocaches almost never stay on top where muggles can readily read and understand what geocaches are. Any of you who have done my ammo box caches have probably noticed my stash note tecnique.

Printing the following PDF files onto some full sheet stickers available at most any office and department stores will solve all those problems. Each file prints two stickers per page and once attached to the top inside cover of your ammo box, the stash note is there for good, and visable as soon as the ammo box is opened. For extra durability, I like to spray paint over the note with some clear polyurethane. Make sure the ink has time to fully dry or the polyurethane may make the ink run.

The fact that you are looking at old threads - in which there is a HUGE amount of geocaching information - is also appreciated. :D:D

And here after another year someone else has read it - I'm sure not the only one in that time! Once placed online, it's there for the good of all. THANKS! :)
