    I'll give them some change or a buck. I'm not looking to change the world or prove a point. Like prostitutes, you're paying them to go away and leave you alone. On the other hand I will probably be avoiding that place in the future as it's likely not the place I want to be hanging out at if that sort of stuff is going on in the parking lot.

    I always tell them
    "you will have to talk to my wife she looks after all our money. And good luck with that because she wont even give me any!"
    They always just walk away.

    One strategy I particularly relish is asking them for money, cigarettes or food. They flip out. Try that one. Catches them off guard. They aren't used to people pestering them for hand outs.
