I want a front door with a built-in scream since the 'No Soliciting' sign seems to be routinely ignored.
My wife bought a metal placard that says, "No Soliciting", with, "Thank You" below it. It's working pretty well. It is mounted on our front gate.
A couple days ago a girl around the age of 11 knocked on the door. I expected her to be trying to help with some school fundraiser (though those are usually done online any more.) She was nicely dressed with an obviously expensive hairdo. She said she and her friends were hoping to get money for a pizza at 7-11. I was a little stunned but told her truthfully that I usually don't have cash on me.
The nearest 7-11 is about three miles away...maybe they were able to scrounge up some money between here and there.
