Nope. We live eight miles from town. We did have some religious folks pull up in the driveway this summer and invite my roommates' kids to bible school, though. The kids had a great time!
It seems like we have people knocking on my door once or twice a month. 100% of the time I don't buy anything. If I wanted someone's product, I would seek it out online or in a store.
I feel the same way! I do not even open he door for them because I do not know who they are.
We often get people with petitions to sign, an the occasional Jehovah's witness. The former I will politely tell "no thanks" since they are innocent looking high school and college kids. But the former are adults and quite ballsy and pushy; I will verbally abuse them with gusto. I must have gotten a reputation as an @$$h0l3 since they haven't come by in a looooooooong time.
