Dan Hughes's Gift Favorites

Is it really that time of year again? Really? It seems like just a few weeks ago that we finished putting away the decorations from last Christmas and started (and then ignored) a new set of New Year’s resolutions. The summer seemed to fly by as if it never happened and that just means that the holidays will be upon us before we’re ready to accept that they are, indeed, here. When I was a little kid, the gifts that meant the most were those that told me someone took the time to really think about what I liked. My older sister once gave me 50 Hot Wheels cars for Christmas...wow...50 is a lot when you’re a little kid. And that gift started me off on a love affair with cars that I still have today. By the way, that same year, my aunt gave me a pair of sox and a belt. Guess who still gets better gifts from me to this day? The dollar amount of the gift has, and will, never impress me. In fact, I always seem to feel somehow uncomfortable when I think someone has spent too much on me. That’s one of the things I love about QVC during the holidays. You don't have to break the bank to make someone know that you really care and were thinking of them. We have a really nice NASCAR Dale Earnhardt Jr. Scale Die-cast 12-car Set for only $65. Some things don't have to change…that's a great gift for a child, boy or girl.


The gift of food has always been a winner at our home as well. So many people watch QVC and fall in love with the idea of a Lobster Gram or Kansas City steaks, but for whatever reason, they won’t take the time to order for themselves, even though they watch the show and get hungry every time. Treat them to that special meal that they will remember for weeks to come and the thought that you made it easy for them to do so. And QVC will make it easy for you with the Bill-to/Ship-to option, which lets us do all the work so you can take all the credit. I also highly recommend anything from Stuffin Gourmet or some of the fabulous desserts we make available.


So take a few moments, think of who’s on your list, then let us help you make that special individual feel great when they receive the item you chose for them. Happy holidays to you and your family.
