I didn't know what to say...........till a friend who was walking by stopped and told her "No, so just go."

Merchandising? So that's what soliciting is called now?
I saw a sign up in a shop once:

"Every 3rd salesperson (Merchandiser) who enters this shop to sell stuff will be shot on site, the 2nd one has just left".....

And, in the US of A, I would be more inclined to take that seriously lol.

If you hate people continually in your face trying to sell you crap don't go to China...
