Good call. If I witnessed or was subject to this sort of solicitation, I would absolutely speak to management and make it perfectly clear that I was never setting foot inside the store again if that sort of thing was allowed. I'd extend that to every location if it's not an independent.
I've never seen anything like that happen, but I did get accosted by a Jesus freak in the parking lot of a convenience store when I bought some gas for a down-on-their luck couple once. Dude insisted I was going to get repaid sevenfold for my generosity in heaven and wanted to hold a little prayer circle in the parking lot. Fuck no, get away from me.
