That's my personal preference. I don't care what kind of store iti s I hate being bombarded with a sales person/employee as soon as I get in the door. If I need help or can't find something, I'll ask. It's nice to have a "hi, welcome to......" when I walk in but not someone at my side asking a ton of questions about what I'm looking for or needing. Most of the time I'm just browsing anyway. ;)
To the original poster - sorry you drove so far to feel the way you do. That's a bummer. :(
