What do you say when you walk into a store/the bank and there is no one at the otdel where you need service?

I think I heard someone say "Можно кого–то!?" once at the khoztovary store. Is that right? Is there another way?

My impulse is to say "Um... Hello!!" - so can you just say "алло!!" ?

Spaseebs.

"Можно кого-то?" for me sounds not very right.
I usually ask: "Есть тут кто-нибудь?" - "Is anybody here?", or just: "Ау-у!" (which is usually a way for people walking in forest to call each other, if they are lost) :)))
