I certainly didn't want the subscription, and he seemed surprised when I actually refused the free copy he offered. I wouldn't even use it to start my charcoal chimney (I have the <I>Claremore Regress</I> for that, you know). We usually don't buy things from salespeople, but when it's a kid we tend to just make a contribution, since a small contibution tends to be larger than the percentage of whatever they are selling the organizations usually get. I was about to offer him a small contribution when he asked me to give toward his trip anyway. Something about being so forward really hit me wrong so I told him I didn't think we'd be interested. If <I>The Whirled</I> is running these little sales contests, I wish they'd stop it already.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
