Has anyone actually seen a door-to-door salesman?

Yeah, I had some Kirby vaccuum salesmen here a few months ago. (ok it was winter because I invited them inside to get out of the cold) Unfortunately, once they came inside, it was awhile before they left. I don't even have any carpet in my house. It is all hardwood floors.

Yes ... here in Montreal, there are many who get import/export permits, then they get a bunch of nice stuff at a low price, then go around door to door offering their stuff for sale ... as well as having sidewalk/yard sales and going to flea markets ...

yes! I( even saw one the other day, selling vacuums!

A meat salesman came to our door many years ago. We bought tons of discount steaks and they were delicious!

It's too bleeping hot for any body to sale anything but God door to door here, I live in Arizona (it's only 109 today).

i haven't. all i get are door-to-door Jehovah's Witnesses.

Yes, many times.

We used to have fuller brush salesmen that sold door to door when I was young. My mom used to invite him in and we'd watch his demonstration. She usually bought some kind of brush or another, and he made a good living at it back then.

Through the years, I've been on quite a few job interviews for positions that were for door to door sales, though I never took any (most weren't advertised as door to door sales). But there were a lot of people who did take those jobs. I remember a few of them: one was selling Kitchen knife sets, two were selling Vacuum cleaners (Rainbow and Kirby), and one was selling replacement windows.

Yes but not in a very long time. They may just not come my area. The last one I saw was a Kirby Vaccuum salesman and we ended up getting it. Still works too. The thing is over 20 yrs old.

I get them all the time. Sometimes they even try to sell me things/services that I already have with/from their company.

Last week a door salesman came to my door.He was out of breath for it was solid oak.I felt sorry for him and bought it.

This used to be a common in my country. Some how this method of selling did not get on too well with the populace. However it is still a common sight in eateries to see people with big bags going around selling products ranging from socks to books for children. Some foreigners are now roped in to do this very tiring work.

Yes. I don't understand how someone can be born and raised in the US, and they know the English language, but have NOOOOOOO idea what the word NO means.
