>>60982256
do you buy them?
>>
Rarely. Jehovas are more usual
>>
Nope
>>
only jw and charity fund workers asking for monnies
>>
Rarely. It's mostly yanks coming over to sell their religion.
>>
Every weekend (London), but as the other guy said it's just americans who have come to sell their religion.
>>
Not common but they do exist.
What is really common now is receiving calls from energy or tel companies, they are more annoying and persistent then Jeovah's witnesses.
And you know something is really bad if it's worse than that.

When will the Americanization end

Very rare for where I live, Jehovah's witnesses come probably one, twice a year.
>>
>>60982270

I've had girls from my local school come around selling chocolate bars for charity, which surprised me because I live in a real shithole suburb
>>
>>60982215
Only the ones selling insurance or vacuum cleaners (these fucking suck). Other than that, we have annual visits from volunteer firemen selling calendars and people from the local mountaneering club collecting membership (these two are cool), we also get the fucking Jehovas (these should've been dealt with 70 years ago, the scum).

Selling potatoes from a truck. Nowadays they are rare, but in 90s and 00s they visited more often. If you eat a lot of potatoes (I don't), they are useful, probably.
I heard about salesmen aggressively selling shitty vacuum cleaners for insane price (many thousands of dollars), but have never seen them personally.
No firemen, no girlscouts.
Outside I was many times stopped by "Do you want to talk about God?" people ("No, I don't."), but they very rarely visited my apartment block.

Also in 90s and 00s there were almost no cold calling (phone ads/salesmen), but now I constantly get cold calls. Sometimes very aggressive, like people demanding explanation why I don't want to buy their products or calls pretending I called them first. Very annoying.

Only my regional Internet provider but I'm not sure if they do it anymore.

It is illegal in most forms here.
>>
>>60982215
They kinda died out, at least from my experience. I remember a lot more of them in the 90s.
Nowadays it's just charities begging and Jehovah's Witnesses.
>>
>>60982270
We have that calendar scam too, except here it's "chimney sweeps".
>>
>>60991420
>firemen calendars
>scam
It's how volunteer firemen make money to keep the organisation functioning. They also organise bonfires for the first of May here, as well as a few event every year where polka groups come to play.
>>
>>60991870
Well if it's volunteer firemen than that's a different thing entirely, true.
Here it's just scammers dressing in black clothes and pretending to be legit chimney sweeps (linked to good luck in Polish superstitions), selling their "official" lucky calendars.
The actual chimney sweep union has been futilely trying to spread awareness that they have nothing to do with it and it's just all impostors.
>>
>>60992749
Aren't chimney sweeps linked to good luck everywhere? You have to hold onto a button on your shirt if you see one.

We have

If it is fresh caught fish from that day, that would be very good. I would buy.

It is. Pretty nice at times and we also have a fish cart driving around every tuesday. Pic related.
>>
>>60993139
I've no idea, but that's exactly what the superstition is here as well.
I wonder if the sweeps get tired off seeing people grab their buttons.
>>
>>60986260
wow, you showed them, didn't you?

Do Jehova witness even knock on muslim homes?
