Don't get too excited.  You know that the regular schedule of Christmas shows begin to appear daily in early September, with a few all day events thrown in before Halloween.

Wanna bet, Trix, it'll be even earlier than early Sept. this year?

 

I kinda like these shows.  I'm Jewish so they save me from spending anything with the Q.

I love shopping and decorating for Christmas, but QVC's Christmas programming drains the joy of the Holiday season right out of me with its commercialism. Maybe if it were just one show a week, with a variety of items, it would not be so bad. But it is the same 'stuff', over and over and over again. Do they think people crawl out from under a rock to watch this channel who have never seen a FlashPad for goodness sake? Or poo pouri, or candles in the windows or whatever product they have in their warehouses and need to get rid of?

  I used to look forward to the ONE day in July when there was Christmas programming. Then is was a weekend. How did it get to be the whole month, on and on, like water torture? And the worst part, is that there will be more in August, and then in September there will be a countdown with the number of shopping days until Christmas. I can only hope that someone will discover a new stash of interesting gift items besides Mr. Christmas, or Lenox ornaments, that we have not seen year after year after year.  I think the buyers are just tired and bored with this as well as demonstrated by what they are putting on air.

September? QVC generally has at least one all day x-mas event a month beginning in August. Once they have x-mas in July, they are in full on holiday selling mode.

Don't get too excited because it will be Christmas in August, then Christmas in September and by October it will just be Christmas.  They just jump over Halloween and Thanksgiving

Hobby Lobby has had their decorations and trees out for a month. Forget Halloween and turkeys they went straight to Xmas.

 

Sad.

What I don't understand is come Labor Day and bam! Summer is over and now it's time for winter. We don't do that in the warmer climates. We don't say oh it's March 1st, bam, it's summer. It will be warm until November here. Yes Christmas is in the stores and I have been looking but that is about it. I don't get excited for Christmas. What I do get excited for is winter and cooler weather.
