Does anyone here stop for annoying Kiosk sales people-skin care/message machines/etc.

The mall my store is in is filled with Kiosk Carts and some pretty pushy sales people..... but I still haven't slowed down to hear their stupid pitch...... Vacations, hair straighteners, splat ball, electric muscle relaxer (or something like that), etc...... but amazingly all of these carts have customers......

Who the **** goes to the mall to buy sneakers and walks out with a $100.00 Flat iron (marked down from $200 but $40 at Target most likely)..?

Crappy businesses relying on bad sales people. I just ignore then and do not make eye contact. If they start walking out in front of me I just look and say "I'm not interested at all". I am not super rude or anything, but just straight to the point. If they continue to speak, then the rude goes up a notch and they get the "I already said no once" remark. They generally go away after that.

I agree with that.

While The Corner no longer needs said pic, sending it privately to both the former moderator and the current moderator would in fact help with the quality of response from both Zdave and I.
