Behind me, all my guests were yelling at him, "Come on in and play some games!" He looked like he just wanted to get away quickly.

haha... this made me laugh. Im aware the situation was pretty innocent, but come on, a random kid shows up and a bunch of adults ask him to come "play some games"... hell I'd run too! Just kidding.

Works like a charm. I highly recommend making one.

Good point, when I did the door to door gig I usually just avoided these houses unless the homeowner was already on the front lawn and engaged me in discussion. But yeah these signs should keep solicitors away.
jordon your story is ridiculous and you should have just shut the door as soon as he started his bs about what are you having for dinner. I gotta say, as much as I try to defend door to door guys because its a tough job and i needed one at the time... they are pretty sleazy and i try my best to just black out those memories.
