Christmas Carolers

[deadskinmask]

until this year, i lived in the swamp.... out there ppl don't just wander up to your house singing....

It's caroling season in these parts and I was wondering what do you do when people come to your door and start singing?  Are you supposed to give them money or cookies or just stand there like an asshole while they sing to you?

In Winnipeg, they would be greeted with bear spray.

[kiebers]

I think bear spray/mace is winning....LOLOLOL

[RW]

Seriously...you people need help.

In an age where scammers pull tricks on us, this group should have sent a flyer prior to their performance to expect their visit and to explain who they are or what group they are supporting. They could have said that small donations will be appreciated and it will go to _____ charity or whatever.



I am a caroler and carolee. We usually warn the folks we are going to visit that we are coming. I've never been a part of a group that wanted to be paid though. We always got invited in for hot cider or whatever but that's because we knew the hosts and they knew us. I am not sure I want to invite strangers into my place just because they sang Christmas carols.

So you do it as a fundraiser.



See that makes sense but the group last year didn't want money so I got confused.

Try ignoring the door.

This ^^^.



The same tactic one would use when the J-Dubs come a knockin'.  You NEVER answer the door.



Once you start talking to these freaks, they'll never stop coming around.



One good thing about living in a condo, is I have NOBODY ever randomly knocking on my door.
