On Sunday September 28th while shopping at a Pamida store in Blair, Nebraska, I was approached by two saleman from Andrae Michaels portrait center and after telling them I was not interested, they proceeded to tell me about a free giveaway I could sign up for. I declined the offer but they continued the high pressure sales campaign and I signed up for what I thought was a free giveaway. Upon completing the form they then informed me that I owed them 10 dollars. I then declined the offer and walked away, but they followed and continued the high pressure sales routine. I wrote them a 10 dollar check, fully intending to demand a refund after contacting the home company when after reading the receipt, found out that they don't give refunds only rescheduling. So after paying 30 dollars to stop pay on their check, their "free" giveaway wasn't so free after all.
