My Avon lady, my therapist?

From The Globe and Mail newspaper (Toronto), March 28:

"[She] understands that a large part of being an Avon lady is being a confidante. 'I entered a home last week where the woman was confused about how to order from the catalogue, as it was her first time using Avon,' [she] says.

"We got talking, and discovered we both were mothers, both on a budget. She told me a $35 bottle of perfume was out of her reach, and I told her I'd think about what I could do. I'm going back there soon, and I'm going to suggest the Imari four-pack, for $14.99 It's a great deal. I'm sure she'll love it."--"The Avon lady's career makeover," by Deirdre Kelly
