Combatting Door to Door Salesmen Advice
My wife got exploited today. Some pushy ****er came to our door, intimidated her, and talked her into buying his product through strong arm tactics.

I've looked up the company and products online and see that this is common practice for them and complaits to the company go unheeded. So I've written this one off. But there's always future such occurrences, and I want to protect my wife (who is home alone all day working) from being scared and intimidated by some slimy thug and pressured into paying for something just to get rid of him.

So: no solicitors sign? Train her in how to slam the door in people's faces? Have her call the cops? How can I empower her to feel safe, secure, and confident in the future in dealing with these scenarios (and gun training is not the answer as someone would end up dead).

Called the police department and the dispatcher said there was nothing they could do now. Said that she should have called them at the time and the city has no ordinance against unlicensed salespeople. Did say there had been other complaints today.

Our five-liter Specials for ADVANAGE 20X are perfect examples of this. For only $129.95 you receive five liters of ADVANGE 20X – a savings of $54.80.
$130 for 5 liters of water, alcohol and fragrance?

Then why should she have called at the time? It sounds like no law was violated.

I think KS and MO have buyer's remorse laws for anything over a certain amount of money. You have 48 hours (or thereabouts) to call them and tell them to pick up their crap.
