YES.

The kid CAME IN MY HOUSE. Just let himself in. Then when I told him I wasnt buying anything cause I had no money he looked around and said "it looks like you do"

I was so sick and weirded out.

I thought I would be nice and order a few mags, but when the guy told me the total was over $600 I almost sh*t my pants! Chat Icon

So, me being the nice girl that I am (aka SUCKER), I agreed to the cheapest subscription which was for $66 for 3 yrs. (I know...totally outrageous...don't ask me why I agreed.)

Anyway, I was just researching them online and there are 8 complaints against them w/the Mississippi Better Business Bureau.

So I was going to put a stop payment on the check I gave the guy and cancel the subscription immediately (today).

Do most banks charge you for a stop payment on a check??? (Can you tell I rarely use checks?! Chat Icon ) I'd ask my DH....but if he finds out that I didn't turn this guy away immediately, he'll beat me silly. Chat Icon

That's a bit much!!! Chat Icon What did you do!?!?!
I think the guy that came to my house kept his distance b/c of my dogs.

the guy that came to my house was asking questions about what I do for a living, what my DH does for a living and questions regarding my neighborhood and such. Now I'm kind of nervous.

I was JUST posting that about this. Not more than 5 minutes ago, did my doorbell ring. I gave 20 bucks through my window. I thought he was gonna barge in a rape me, and lied that I had "King" my rottie in the house, and couldnt open the door because of it.

P.S. My poop is bigger than my dogs. I dont have a rottie.

3 magazine subscriptions!!!! I totally was not expecting him to say $600.

I put a stop payment on the check figuring taking a hit for $25 is better than $66. Chat Icon I'm just angry at myself for not turning the guy away to begin with. (I normally tell everybody who comes to the door I'm not interested.)

The worst part is I already have something like 25 magazine subsciptions!!! LOL Chat Icon
