In thinking after 7 pm on a dark friday is a stupid time to

Have a young offenders programme (I assume its legit) door to door sales team hit your street?

There are more people at home in the evenings.

Sounds about right

There's no point in them knocking during the day when most people are at work/shopping

And it's almost certainly not legit - we've had them a couple of times and I've googled them and the organisations either don't exist or are deeply dodgy.

Oh thanks patriciaholm I wasnt sure

By the way Ive had them come in the day before....just they were adults and this was a "young offender"

It still makes sense to knock when more people are likely to be home though surely?

You might think so but its a poor decision as I, for example, am less likely to open the door to an unknown caller and certainly wont be handing money to a door to door seller at night. (and Im in my pjs )

Call the police, our local police are interested in 'Nottingham Knockers' that sell door to door as they are usually unlicensed pedlars. Non-emergency obv.

i do not want uninvited sales knocking on my door regardless of the time of the day... also regardless of their programme/agenda (religious, homeless, young offenders...)

WTF is a young offenders sales team?! Shurely shum mishtake.

Yes, young offender who is "trying to make something of himself"
By selling dodgy gear door to door for a commission?hmm
