First this happens on a Friday 11/12/10 which makes it hard to get a hold of anyone over the weekend. This girl comes down my driveway and starts talking about everything under the sun and how she has to talk to everyone to build up her communication skills. She inquires about how she is doing quite often. Tries to get on a real close basis with us. Then here it comes, she's in a contest with the guys at school. There is over 3,000 of them in this and whoever wins, gets a trip to Paris. Then says that she will get points for this trip if we order magazines from her.
So we looked them over as she was telling us how many points were for each one. I decided to get two and then she proceeded to tell me that she would get more points if I gave her a business card, and more points if I wrote something nice about her on the back of it. If someone in my family was in the military or a firefighter. She would also get more points if I put a smiley face on my check. Then she said that if I gave her cash she would get more points. That should have raised the red flag right there, but you weren't here.
Anyway, I didn't feel good about the amount that it cost and decided to cancel the next day. The following Tuesday I hear on my local radio station that there are door to door sales people going around my neighborhood without the proper permits and that you should call the police. So, needless to say I put stop payment on my check and called the local police. I will never let anyone sell me anything at my home again unless they have the proper permits and then I will always remember this day and tell them no, I'm sorry.
