This just got to me.

Yesterday I received a call from a lady who is calling on behalf of the beauty place she's working for. During the good 3 minutes of introducing herself & the beauty place (both of which I didn't hear. All I heard was blah blah blah), I wanted to cut her off by saying I was busy which I really was but felt bad to interrupt her so I let her get to the main point, which was painstakingly SLOW.

And her main point? 

I was entitled to a free one hour facial treatment that comprises of blah blah blah which was rid of any obligation from my part.

(sorry, my ears switched off automatically to things I'm not interested in) 

I turned her down and it was then she asked "Oh why, it is free you know?". 

The instant reply I wanted to blurt out was, 

"So what if it is free? I don't want it and you mentioned that there is no obligation, so why are you asking like I'm obliged to say yes?" 

Of course I didn't say that out because she's just an employee who's doing her job so there's no reason be so rude.

The point that I'm trying to get across is that not every single person is attracted the moment you mention "IT'S FREE". To me, that isn't a magic phrase or something, so don't even bother trying. If I'm not interested in the product/service, telling me it's free isn't going to change my mind miraculously. Perhaps telling me that it comes with a delicious cake may, so why don't you give me a free delicious cake?
