I scream “Don’t touch me there you creep” as loud as I can. That solves the problem pretty quickly for everybody.

I walk by and ignore. If they step in front, I say I'm not interested. If they continue after that, I firmly tell them to frick off and leave me alone, because it's my goddamn time they are attempting to steal.
I've become more polite in my initial dealings with people, and a far bigger a-hole when I need to "re-engage".

I stared one down without saying anything and that set him into a spiral. He was yelling at me as I walked away.
I hate that Costco knowingly lets their members be harassed by these people.

Blowing my rape whistle works great

I just tell them that I'm a VP for AT&T and " You're doing great! Keep up the good work."

Same thing I tell Vivint and pest control guys.
“Next time try using a pretty woman and I’ll at least hear your pitch.”

I carry a dummy android phone and flash it at them so they think I’m poor

Interesting thought here, I would agree.
I wonder if this is the norm as people age

I just lie and tell them that I already have AT&T.

They must pay Costco a ton for the right to harass all the customers basically at the entrance, 2nd most aggravating thing at Costco,..number 1 is the removal of the hand scanner at the self checkouts
Posted on 7/15/24 at 10:05 am to Carson123987
I just say "No hablo español" and walk away.

I have AT&T thanks.
I am good thanks.
I am not interested thanks.

Just walk right by, just like I used to do with the middle easterners at the kiosks in the mall.

I do similar. I hold up my 5yo galaxy with a cracked screen and say "Im on Tracfone".
100% true too

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.
