Ugh. Kiosk Gypsies. They kept trying to ambush my wife and I at the mall during the holidays. " Excuse, would you childrens lika the flying cosmo disc?" Or they would try to put that dirty wire scalp massager on our heads. "Excuse, try the message." I guess it's kind of funny, but at the time it was annoying.

A friend of mine was going to buy something from one of those kiosks (not the helicopter thing) and we stood there for like 3 minutes. Only ones there, and the douchebag was on his cell phone. Didn't even attempt to end the call or ask us if we needed assitance. They lost a sale that day. They hire some real winners for those positions.

You mean the counterfeit NES clone russian mafia stands? What a joke. Way too $$$ too. :|
Those booths/carts aren't cheap either. I know someone that attempted it for a couple of months, selling vitamins and stuff.
