I swear those Magic Touch/Dead Sea skin care people are like Hanibal Lecter
"It puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again."
I have complained eleventy billion times before about these people. This time, at the Source Mall, they were doubled up - one on each side of the kiosk. I was trapped. I tried to hide behind people. I didnt think fast enough to reach for my phone and fake a conversation. The pushy lady came up to me and started with her "Can I ask you a question?" So I put my hand up and kept walking. Would you believe this BEE-YOTCH actually gave ME an attitude and said "Uch!"?
If I wasnt so damn tired, I would have walked back to her, told her lotion was a bunch of crap and stuck the bottle in a "secret place."

I just wanted to strangle her the way Katherine threatened to strangle "Precious." Why do these people bother me so much?

When they say,"can I ask you a question?" exactly what is the question?

Re: I swear those Magic Touch/Dead Sea skin care people are like Hanibal Lecter
I am not a mean person....but I turn into SUPER BEYOTCH when confronted with them....I usually just make it like I havent heard them and keep walking...
One actually stood in front of me once blocking my path..it was at that point that I explained to her exactly what I was going to do with her product if she didnt step AWAY!!! (I was 8 months preggo at the time..blame it on the hormones)

If I said, "go ahead, ask away?" what would the question be? Would the person die of shock b/c no one ever says yes?

That has been my "technique" so far but I have also used my DS as an excuse such as "oh sorry, my son pooped and I have to go change his diaper".

Re: I swear those Magic Touch/Dead Sea skin care people are like Hanibal Lecter
Isn't there anyone out there who can just tell me what the darn question is?
I do not want to have to actually talk to one of these people in order to satisfy my curiosity.

Re: I swear those Magic Touch/Dead Sea skin care people are like Hanibal Lecter
I got suckered into buying their products one time and I'll never let it happen again. Not because they're products aren't good (they're actually great), but they are so damn pushy. If I was interested, I would approach their booth. I also avoid Gadgets and Gizmos because of the pushy salespeople. I don't enjoy shopping with somebody breathing down my neck and questioning my every move.

Re: I swear those Magic Touch/Dead Sea skin care people are like Hanibal Lecter
I bought that stuff- and I didn't think it was great
so when they start with the can I ask you a question crap
I smiles and say- you don't want to know what I think of your products
that ends it every time

I know this one.
It's "Have you ever heard of the Dead Sea?"
....not too exciting.

Re: I swear those Magic Touch/Dead Sea skin care people are like Hanibal Lecter
I have resorted to my dh's line when they say can I ask you a question I reply "you just did" and keep going.
That is of course only when the like jump out of NO WHERE and I don't have my phone to the ear having a conversation with no one

Re: I swear those Magic Touch/Dead Sea skin care people are like Hanibal Lecter
haha---when they do that--and say "can i ask you a quesiton?" my DH responds with "you just did" and usually they are kind of stunned into silence for a second as they re-think what he said--since he's right.

I pretend I can't speak English or that I am not from the country depending on where I am approached by any annoying salesperson.

They are almost as bad in Broadway Mall too. I just say I'm not interested and walk faster.
