I bought a $30 bottle of soap from a door-to-door salesman.

It was a very good bottle of soap.

I am printing and laminating this. So I may post copies to my door and the wall above my phone. Possible a wallet-sized version as well.

*beams* thank you! I'm glad to be of some help... :)

That's a good idea. Now that I think of it, I really should consider doing the same...

At least I don't have a land-line, so I don't get many telephone solicitations. The major ones I have to deal with are mostly in person. I should post this by the door for the times when I glare at the wall in helpless frustration. The wallet-sized version is a good idea, too.

A (now deceased) friend of the family was kind of a goofy looking old man. He liked to answer the door disheveled, wearing a bike helmet, and drooling a little. He would tell whoever was at the door that "I love YOU!!!" and give them a large, wet kiss. And proceed to babble somewhere between your "barking mad" and "unrelated questions" modes to anything they tried to say.

I don't know how effective it was, but he sure had a lot of fun with it.
