Avoiding salesmen at the mall
Do you go out of your way to avoid people at the mall or in front of stores tring to sell something?
I always try to look busy or tell them the kids are crabby and I have to go. If I want to buy something I would buy it, but not at their prices.

Same for me, most of the time anyway. If you slow down or (God forbid) stop, you're lost. LOL

I usually at first try to look away but they can be persistant, so then I say no thank you and walk away.

I give them a hi, the hand and a smile, they seem to speak the lingo.

I say no thanks but try to avoid them as much a possible. I think they are the reason why I avoid malls alltogether.
