How come

when some of these fashion folks have a TSV, there are two pages of their merchandise on Lunchtime Special and nothing else, sometimes with all free shipping, but when there is a Christmas event or home event, we don't get the same kind of offerings?

Just sayin'.

I never noticed, but very good question!

Earlier today I was looking for some new teardrop swags for Christmas decorating. I had 2 picked out, then I saw the s&h! They were not ordered! Fortunately, later on, DH said he put our old ones away last year and they were in good shape. BTW, I did look at other retailers who offer no s&h; if ours needed replacing I would have ordered from them. When purchasing multiples the s&h raises the cost by a considerable amount.

I am convinced that some items are introduced at a very high price slated only to be offered at a discount as a Lunchtime or Primetime Special. (Or some other QVC sale scam.) Cough, cough, LOGO...

@Mominohio - I've often pondered this same question! Occasionally when a jewelry item is a TSV or Big Deal, we'll get one jewelry item from that same brand among the specials, but 90% of the Lunchtime and Primetime Specials are clothing...all the time. Since I don't purchase clothing from the Q, it makes my browsing simpler and my bank account happier, but it really would be nice to have more thematic deals and especially more variety!
