Tried that several times, both at the door and the phone. Then they start trying to explain the advantages...and on, and on, and on. I then go to my Northeast Tennessee roots and say, "Look, I don't purchase anything at my front door (or unsolicited phone calls)". BTW, that includes high school kids selling magazines (got burned once to the tune of $50).

Remember the advice of my pappy, "Once burned, lesson learned!"
