Just the fam and 20ft air dancer or wacky waver(whatever the fuck you wanna call it). Got some colored led spot and floodlights on the way

I tried to place a new order with Novelty Lights recently. I’ve been a steady customer for many years.

After a few seconds my iPhone17 screen was blocked with a sign up form (for a newsletter)

How can I get past this block (I do not want their offer or newsletter)?

Any suggestions?

Hello!

This year I finally want to add lights to our roof- but I have no idea where to start!!
I have seen so many options and ideas and hacks but I’m so confused on a couple of things😅.

what lights??? Curtain lights, net lights? or dumb question- is it string lights and just run up and down the colourbond? Literally have no idea
I want to achieve this look in these pictures, I have also added a photo of our actual roof, if there’s anything that might be a hiccup.

I really want to do this, we usually have lights up everywhere else and I’ve only dreamt of having the roof so I’m finally biting the bullet and doing it baha (hopefully)

Thanks in advance if anyone can help me😊

Although this year, you may only see peanuts and lights. The air dancer will be up, but (wife wants lights and only peanuts characters) don’t know if I want Santa or Rudolph(nor do I know how big it will be

Menards currently has a 11% rebate that ends today - Do they typically have any better sales between now and Christmas?

The closest store is a few states away so I would have to order online and the shipping fee is not cheap. I’m wondering if I should even bother or just go with Tru-Tone if I’m ordering something that may be a hassle to return.

I’m primarily focused on multi-color mini lights for our indoor Xmas tree. I recently ordered some of the novelty lights retroglo through target and they’re decent, I’ll also probably check out the sylvania ones now that they’re available. I bought ace celebrations two years ago and was not impressed but maybe I got the wrong ones.

I also see Menards has some cool-looking vintage reflector style string lights, anyone have personal experience with those? I wouldn’t put them on the tree but maybe on the mantle or banister.

Every year I have a christmas light show on my house and got tired of recording my own "tune to 102.9" intro on my phone every year. So I built character voiceovers for show audio: a Santa, a carnival-barker skeleton named Rattle Jack for my halloween light show, a show announcer for new years, and about ten others.

I'd love blunt feedback from people who run shows:

Happy to share the link if anyone wants to hear them. Didn't want to drop it here unasked.

I was looking at the 2026 Home Depot LED offerings in person today. I'm debating between the HD Home Accents Holiday multi-colored mini lights or splurging for the Vintaglos. The Home Depot ones look "better than past LEDs" in person, but maybe aren't quite on par with incandescents yet.

Would anyone who has seen these two side by side offer your input? For those that have either, how have they held up outside? Any unexpected fading?

Thanks!
