We refuse to vacation in places like Mexico and Jamaica because of the peddlers. I understand that everyone needs to make a living, but it is NO Vacation if you are constantly fending off peddlers.

We like A/C, but our friends refuse to return due to peddling (real estate and others).

I think that the Chamber does not fully realize the extent of the problem, since the peddlers don't target locals (and often curtail their aggresive behavior around them).

One thing is sure - Peddlers hurt the tourist trade.
