I know I am not going to be the only one here....Okay, so you have to run to the dreaded Wally World. It's going to be packed you know, except for our new one, you park your car way far away because there is no where else, so now I am aggravated. I start walking up to the entrance and there are people selling stuff right where you have to walk. I literally dread this and will grab my cellphone an pretend to talk. I hate feeling like they think I am shrugging them off (which I am) but I really do put money in on Christmas to the people who ring that CONSTANT bell. Just let me get in the store. You know as soon as you walk past them and don't give a donation or buy something they are talking about how rude you are. I just think it should not be allowed. Go sell door to door like they should be or at least go to the middle of Wally World and not in my direct line of entering. I know most of the times it is for a good cause, like Girl Scouts, but still. I just want to be left alone. Hello, I need money too! Why don't they take up a collection for us? Hey- I am the one on a budget here!
I hear you! I think they should outlaw selling outside stores and school fundraising. Everybody is school fundraising. It's never ending.
ReplyDeleteI agree completely! I do the cell phone thing as well! Some of the people that are selling stuff or asking for donations, I simply don't trust sometimes! If they can't be avoided, I always ask them if they have a website where I can donate or something like that. It is annoying though, all you want to do is do some simple shopping, not be harassed like you are in a Mexican airport!
ReplyDeleteI completely agree....I've literally been followed to my car by solicitors....so not okay.
ReplyDeletei do the cell phone thing all the time in the mall when the people try to attack you selling straighteners or lotion lol.. i feel bad for ignoring the crap out of them but they need to learn to back off!! :)

I totally agree with you. I cant stand being talked into buying something...I usually just act like I don't see them when I walk into the store. Ha!
ReplyDeleteI completely agree! Sometimes I pretend to be on a cell phone, but it's certainly hard to pretend they're not there when they're ringing the damn bell!
