    <description>&lt;P&gt;For the last several days, I have followed this thread reading and listening to "both sides" of this discussion.  I'm not trying to be an arbitrator but, I believe, the tension on this thread is with the choice of words used and the perception of those words.  &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;Adore:  You became upset when the poster used the word "undermine" in her response to you.  You took it as a personal attack having to prove your point with long posts in caps and bold text with somewhat of a "lecturing" tone.  What you posted is, certainly, not incorrect, but it's what the majority of people already know and understand, that being;  there will always be some people who are compulsive, be it shopping, drinking, hoarding, etc.&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;After rereading the posts, I seriously don't believe, in my opinion, the poster had any intention of purposely trying to attack you.  It was a statement, as I read it, to indicate that most people are aware that compulsive shoppers exist and the problems that can ensue.  I'm probably not going to convince you of that, as we're all very passionate as to how we feel.  &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;My intention with this post is to merely indicate that, sometimes, we read more into text than what was originally intended.  &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;I also want to state that I truly enjoy this board and have used many of the recipes posted here.  I've even posted a few myself..&lt;IMG src="http://community.qvc.com/DesktopModules/ExactTarget/Controls/TextEditor/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/biggrin.gif" alt="{#emotions_dlg.biggrin}" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;  &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;  &lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I called earlier after I saw the list to ask if that was it for ezpay. I was told oh no, almost everything is on ezpay.&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;We'll know at 9 tonight (my time in CA). Keeping my fingers crossed.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I won't be buying, it just stretches the frustration out of paying their higher prices. It not like the items are all on sale first and then go on easy pay. Now maybe that would be something. Wishful thinking, right?! LOL&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Easy pay is wonderful if used with common sense and wisely, and if it something that can be afforded with no dire consequences down the road.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Unfortunately and quite sadly many people who do use easy pay can actually place them in the poor house if they are not really careful.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Unfortunately many elderly and other people have no healthy other outlets for interaction and recreation.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;They may be very isolated from friends, family, neighbor, or perhaps have no one left at all.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;They may also be very ill, depressed, desperate for any type of interactions, and very lonely.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;In those very sad instances some people may unfortunately turn to shop at home channels and buy and speak on air, and feel as those those hosts and vendors are part of their family.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;That may also turn many of these people into hoarders who shop just to shop, even if they have no room, or do not need the items.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Even a worse scenario is if they have no money to pay for the items in full, they are only adding larger credit and charge card bills with higher rates into their monthly expenses.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Many find themselves in very difficult situations and reach a point where they cannot continue to pay those quite high cc and charge card monthly minimum payments, and that can lead to disaster for them.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;As their inability to pay mounts so does their shame which can lead to desperation.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;If they do have families their families may have a rude awakening that this was happening.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;If they don't have families to bail them out, they could find themselves out in the street and worse.  This is so very sad!&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Sometimes too much of a good thing unless diligence, and common sense are used, is not a good thing at all.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt; &lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I think you are undermining the average person and I always know what I owe. I keep track of all my bills. I do not go overboard on anything. I only buy what I need.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>I ordered a pair of Clarks navy loafers to replace a decades-old pair of Easy Spirit. Also a Linea mossy crepe top since I love the other one I have.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;No I do not believe I am undermining anyone.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Yes some people can keep track of the assets and liabilities with no problems and know how to set up and use a monthly spread &lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;sheet outlining all their finances.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;On the other hand unfortunately many people are not as disciplined.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Many people also are elderly and cannot recall, or are unfortunately no longer capable of making rational decisions, and go overboard charging and using easy pays which they cannot really afford.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Many others were taught to work hard, invest, and save.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;They were also taught to pay their charge and credit card financial obligations in full monthly, so it would defeat their purpose to use easy pays and also pay the cc and charge card interest for using their cards in that fashion.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;I do not be-grudge or judge anyone for deciding how to spend their own $, but when I see how many people have squandered away their funds, on excessive shopping, and end up in financial straits that is when it is clear that problems do exist, but could have been avoided if financial management and basic common sense was handled in a wiser fashion.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Everyone interested can read on the net how many people no longer pay their cc and other financial debts because they cannot afford to, and that is when the realization sets in and the long road ahead becomes a fearful one. There is also the shame knowing one cannot make their financial monthly payments any longer.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;There is another thread referencing the easy pay option and many others also said they bought nothing, and neither did I. &lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;For those who did purchase I hope you are pleased with your purchases and enjoy them, but my post was displayed for the very fact that there are many out there who cannot afford to buy anything they really do not need, just for the sake of taking advantage of a few months of lower monthly payments.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;In that case the only real winner here is QVC who got rid of lots of their aged as well as current inventory, and clearance/sale items.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;The other winners are clearly the creditors who also receive more interest from their consumers for the option of extending to them minimum monthly payments,     regardless of whether they can really afford them or not.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;  &lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt;</description>

I keep track of all my bills. I do not go overboard on anything. I only buy what I need.&lt;/P&gt; &lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;elated my reply was one of a general fashion, and not directed to anyone specifically, certainly not to you because what you do with you funds, and how you make your credit or debit card purchases is your concern.   &lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
