What is your preferred method of avoiding the AT&T salesmen at BR Costco?

Do you pretend like you can't hear them?
Quickly speed by and hope they've wrangled someone else?
Loop around the back side of electronics?
Pretend like you're talking on the phone?
Weave through the furniture section in the center until you've circumvented the area?
I generally just walk by and say "I'm in a hurry" as they try to match pace and ask how I'm doing. Will pretend I can't hear them if they don't pursue.
Last time I went, one of them basically moonwalked from one conversation (I guess he realized the target wasn't biting) for about 30ft to catch up to me. Comical.

I always used to give them no eye contact and just say "sorry man"

Interesting to hear that they're at Costco (in addition to Sam's).

Goosestep and mumble to yourself as you go by them. They will walk away.

I bite the bullet and try to occupy as much of their time as possible without buying anything or giving them any contact information in an attempt to save everyone else.
Longest I had one tied up was a shade under 2 hours.
You’re welcome.

Say, “No” and keep walking.
Not sure why everyone has so much guilt they have to entertain these things if they don’t want to.

I bring my kids with me to Costco
Posted on 7/15/24 at 9:22 am to Carson123987
I always carry a card in my wallet that says "Sorry, I'm deaf" and show it to people like this when it occurs.
Posted on 7/15/24 at 9:22 am to Carson123987
I spout out a line or two in Russian and they just turned around and leave.

Never been to costco but for the girl scout cookie stands outside my local grocery store I just pretend that I am on the phone yelling at an employee
