Christmas again

Make it stop. Christmas is not until December. How about new normal items instead of the same old stuff. Fall decorations etc leave Christmas wait awhile.

Get used to it. QVC will beat this type of programming into the ground until Dec. 23.

Give it a few weeks and all the sets will have Christmas trees. The hard sell of the holiday is beginning and by mid-September should be in full swing.

Doesn't bother me in the slightest. I'm well aware that it happens every year.....at least every year that I've been watching QVC. I like to shop early anyway.

@CLHS68 I’ve given up on this. I was in the mall yesterday & running errands in Target and other stores. Halloween is everywhere!! Costume choices, candy and decorations...none to be used until Oct. 31st. Christmas is going strong at Q and expect the mall to begin their decorating in September. Last year, Santa was taking appts. for pet photo night mid-November.

Doesn’t time fly by fast enough w/o retailers pushing these holidays so early?

Yes, I remember last yr, QVC had trees on the set EARLY. QVC has about lost me.

Whyever would they quit? Just a few hours back I flicked my TV on for the first time today and David was saying over 75,000 of the TSV had been sold today; I left him on while I prepared lunch and heard there was a sell-out of some toy. By the time I went back to the TV, they'd sold another 67,000 TSV's in just that show. I almost wanted to add to that number even though I really don't decorate much for any holiday.

@CLHS68 I believe that it is on the 25th of the month. That is why it is running all day.

Make it stop. I so totally agree with you. I hate this early pushing of holidays, even though it's been going on for so long now, and I should be used to it. But I seem to hate it more and more, as time is going faster and faster for me.

It's all because businesses want us to spend more and more money stuff. That's why it is the way it is. I know I can't do anything about it, except ignore it in whatever ways I can. I get that, but I can still admit to hating it all, so much.

The shows today have been fabulous....I've enjoyed everything. So much better than seeing a Shark vacuum or another Dooney bag.

As long as sales are up and people continue to buy, they will be selling Christmas stuff from July going forward every year.

Perhaps they will sell it 12 months out of the year....with no waitlist, no reorder.

Nothing wrong with a day here and there. QVC loses me when the sets are officially decorated for Christmas way before Halloween. I rarely watch after Black Friday.

@JohnnyeagerI too loved the shows yesterday I, watched all day, and bought things. I don't decorate a tree anymore, but the trees yesterday were beautiful.How can you not love all the decorations. I bought 3 sets of lights and can't wait to get them, I have so much planned for them. I don't watch the shoe shows because they don't sell my width, but that doesn't mean it upsets me to have it on. I'm not a 24 hour watcher but I was yesterday. My kitchen table has a lighted vase and candle on it, plus trees or birds lit around it 24/7 and it makes me smile when they come on.

I agree, but it's all about getting the first sales of the year .... $$$!

Very disheartening to see Christmas holidays reduced to year round commercialism.The news shows talk about a war on Christmas?This is war on Christmas

Exactly! To much of anything imo makes you lose the excitement and the true meaning of what this is all about.
