This is all because I signed up to win the girls a stuffed animal at our fair. I think we were all winners and thus, they got our names. They had to deliver the winning stuffed animal. I could not get them out of the house, the pressure was intense. They even showed pictures of family members burned badly in a fire. Thank God, my husband threw them out. It left me with nightmares.<BR/><BR/>Glad you gave them the air freshner back.

I just felt like such a sucker by the end. I held firm with my no answer, but was ready to kick the guy in the teeth when he wouldn't take no for an answer.

Tell them you'll think about it and could they come back next week to get your answer. Then when they come back, tell them you can't quite remember how well it worked, could they clean your carpets again to remind you. After a month of this, they should leave you alone and you've gotten yourself out of vacuuming that many times!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07690731008883628777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11657020.post-75190944536429854192008-08-21T20:50:00.000-07:002008-08-21T20:50:00.000-07:00I took a break from processing claims at work and ...I took a break from processing claims at work and thought I would die laughing with everyone around me ????? what is up with you!!!

I think the air freshner was your prize for listening to the demo, not for buying the vacuum. Unbelievable! I never, ever let salespeople in my door. Not one ever. My husband, on the other hand, would invite them all in and buy everything they are selling. He is the sucker in this family. Obviously, he is not allowed to open the door when someone knocks. Never. Ever. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the laugh - KAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11657020.post-61044683501860033542008-08-21T13:26:00.000-07:002008-08-21T13:26:00.000-07:00Must have been a Kirby?I went through this and act...Must have been a Kirby?<BR/><BR/>I went through this and actually wanted to buy one but thankfully my husband was the voice of reason and held me down.

That is pretty cheap if you ask me! I must admit I have fallen prey to the same presentation. They only reason he made it through the door is because my hubby answered. Then the guy laid on the guilt by telling me if I didn't buy one he wouldn't be able to go to Hawaii with the company. See, that was the wrong approach with me. I'VE NEVER BEEN TO HAWAII, WHY SHOULD I SEND YOU?!!!! He left all dejected.
