Flyers Options

[*Moderator*]

Sorry, I couldn't think of a nifty title for this one...but don't you hate the people who give out flyers? I know whenever I go to the crowded places like Flushing or Chinatown, I get squished and on top of that have people slashing me with those damn flyers.

What do you usually do? Ignore them? Walk though them? Take them and just throw them away?

rofl maybe it's the part of the country that I live in, but if someone's trying to hand stuff out, I make their day a little bit easier by taking whatever they're trying to get rid of off their hands. I know when my boss sent me canvassing through the store, I couldn't end the insulting task until I handed every last flyer out. When people would refuse, it was like "wow I'm really not feeling very encouraged here, the least they could've done was take it and throw it away later." =\

So yeah, I'll take it. I don't MIND taking it. But if they're trying to sell me something I'm clearly not going to buy, I'm not gonna waste their time pretending to be interested when they could be spending that time on someone who actually might buy. I'll tell them politely that I'm not interested and keep walking if they're too persistent.
