Sorry, I know I'm continuing to hijack this thread.

I find this happens more to me when I shop in the US than it does here in Canada. I've noticed that as soon as I pick up an item there is a sales person flocking towards me wanting to "serve" me.
Here, they usually wait till my arms are loaded until they offer me a dressing room, but mostly they wait till I ask.

I'm not big on customer service techniques. I think they are crap. But that's just me. I find with all this emphasis on customer service sales people become these monsters from hell. The more agressive you are the less I want to buy from you until I ultimately leave the store. All I ask from sales associates is that they are polite and answer my questions to the best of their ability. I don't need them up my a$$ trying to get me to buy something.

Okay, I think I'm done now.
