I find it all a bit stifling too, to have someone shadowing my every move in a store. It definitely hurries me along, so I don't browse as much and definitely don't buy as much as I probably would have if left to my own devices.
The ultimate one for me was Biarritz handicraft. Three of us shopping had three girls following us around, ready to take everything we picked up to look at out of our hands and put it in the trolley for us. At one point we joked around with the big fans cooling each other off - next thing, one of the girls is following us around the whole floor fanning us as we went! Hilarious, and yet a little unnerving all at the same time.
