Just respond to everything they say with random, unrelated words. For instance: Them: Hello, I'm calling today to tell you about...(blah blah blah) You: Wow, are you psychic? Them: Err, what? You: Once, I thought I was being followed by a Munchkin...you know, from the Wizard of Oz? Turns out it was just a goat. Them: ??? You: Last week, my best friend Dave? He decided to start wearing women's underwear when he got this awesome coupon from Victoria's Secret in the mail. Etc....until they hang up.

Be really interested in the product, ask loads of question and say you want 10 of them, but you need to find your credit card and dont pick up the phone again. Make sure they believe you want it. Put the phone on speaker and see how long they stay on till they hang up. One fella lasted 40mins with me!!!!!!
