Problems with Idaho Falls Door to Door Cleaner Salesmen

Posted by Alice

October 2, 2008

Has anyone else had problems with door-to-door cleaner salesmen?
As a small (very small) business owner, I’ve been the target for just about every door-to-door, phone, mail and internet sales pitch imaginable.
My current gripe is the door-to-door sellers of the miracle cleaner that claims to clean anything and everything far better than anyone could have possibly [...]

Marcus : For sure! And more weapons =).
Guest_2674 : a lot easier to make the big bucks though:)
Marcus : Sounds like real life.
Guest_2674 : and keep building your mafia family
Guest_2674 : you do jobs, make money so that you can buy property and buy weapons so you can do more j0bs and make more money
Marcus : Outside of gang wars, obviously.
Marcus : What's the general idea?
Marcus : I have not played it.

Guest_2486 : that smiley should be an 8. not sure why it did that...
Guest_2486 : or you can call (208) 233-8811
Guest_2486 : IF Food bank: 524-9935
Guest_2486 : I think the IF soup kitchen takes donations of canned goods as well. their at 301 S Boulevard, Idaho Falls - (208) 557-5750
Guest_2486 : Here's the address, not sure of the phone # To donate: Idaho Food Bank Warehouse 590 W. 19TH, Idaho Falls It's probably listed in the phone book though.
Marcus : Makes an ass out of me, but at least I'm not taking!
Marcus : My problem - I assume too much.
Marcus : It's really the taking that I have a problem with. I hate taking, and assume that other Americans do too. Guess I'm wrong. Keep on taking folks, enjoy ;).
Marcus : Giving of my own accord is alright - I will (and do) give when I can afford it. Federally mandate my giving though, and I'll tell you where to stick it, even if I have the funding to give. Nothing wrong with giving.
Guest 217 : I want to give to the local food bank, not the one based in Boise. Anybody know who I contact?
Guest_2486 : Not to open this discussion back up or anything, but if you think about it, the needy already get free healthcare. Whenever somebody goes to the hospital who doesn't have insurance or can't afford it, they're treated anyways. (unless it's a private hospital) And those of us that have insurance end up footing the bill through higher premiums. So you're welcome, I do what I can.
Guest_7743 : Oh brother....not that topic again! I thought you guys were moving on.
Guest_998 : but, by all means, let's not give the needy any universal health care. that would be a travesty.
Guest_2389 : u2!
Guest_2486 : I agree! If we can all afford internet service to converse with each other online, we can all afford a few dollars or cans of food to give to the needy. Have a great day everyone.
Guest_2389 : I agree. Those of us who are not hurting financially are in a position where it wouldn't hurt to donate, say to the food bank cause especially.
Guest_3013 : Please do what you can to give to those less fortunate a nice this holiday season. Most of us can afford a couple of canned goods or at least a couple of bucks to help those who can't afford a nice Thanksgiving dinner this year. Thank you all!
Guest_9223 : i concur
