Ok, I am really getting frustrated, during the past week, I have had to get rid of two door to door sales people at my house and one at my grandparents. I don't know why they are getting worse, but I am really not sure what those guys are selling that come up with a can of air freshner in their hand.

I ran into someone downtown walking around selling paintings of some sort. It's the economy?
I understand completely about the economy, but I am just tired of opening my door and a salesperson being right there. The one at my grandparents was not so nice, plus with them being elderly, kind of made me feel uncomfortable, I just told the man that he caught me as we were leaving, and reached behind me and locked the door, then called my grandma and told her not to answer the door for a litle bit.
Maybe we could resort to harm to them. Only kidding but it does sound good. I am not very nice if they knock on my door.
I never open my door to strangers, J4F. They could be checking out the situation to see who's there. Just tell them through the door you're not interested. It's much safer. Who goes door-to-door anyway? That's nuts!

A few ideas :
If the salesman is male have a male member :) of the house answer the door while completely naked .
Pretend to be deaf when you answer the door .
If the salesman is male and you are a man let him in , look him up and down in a flirting manner , and then say mmmmm aren't you a cutie .
While loosening your belt ask the question , does this look like a boil to you ?
Have your index finger jammed up one of your nostrils and in your best southern accent say ,ken i hep ya ?
Another one for the man of the house . Look him right in the eye and proclaim , You sure got a purdy mouth .
I have never used any of these but I am guessing the guy wouldn't stick around long .

Thanks for all of those suggestions, I am picturing my husband doing these things suggested, I would not be able to stay within eye or ear shot, I would dying laughing in the background.

Ya know, it would be my luck a few of those would backfire, and I'd have a new friend for life.
