ITKWD Mugs

jI’m on the fence about ordering them. I know I won’t use them but, they would be neat to have.

Are you getting them? They’re sure to sell out. Both for $17.50. https://www.qvc.com/Set-of-2-In-the-Kitchen-with-David-16-oz-Mugs-with-Gift-Boxes.

I still have the first set ITKWD sold. "Happy Dance" isn't written on them, but I haven't used them in years.

I won't be purchasing these even though I like the red. It seems I have a penchant for coffee cups, mugs, carry mugs, thermoses, etc. And of course, many come with my various sets of formal and everyday china. My husband has spoken to me very strongly about buying anymore, as our cabinets are overflowing, and I am the only coffee drinker in the house!!

I think these would be a great gift for anyone who is a foodie or does watch ITKWD!! If you really like them and aren't overflowing in your cabinets like me, purchase them, I bet they will be your daily favorite!

If they just said “Happy Dance” I probably would have already ordered the red. It’s probably a pass for me but agree about nice gift for a fan of the show.

Why buy them if you won't be using them? Guess I'm too practical.

The cups can be used for more than just coffee.

You can put any liquid in them, from water, to tea, to milk, to juice, to hot chocolate, to an adult beverage.

As I said, the cups can be used to hold any liquid, and not just be used for coffee exclusively.

The last thing I would want in my kitchen is that childish, Happy Dance. In fact I quit watching the sunday show because of it. Yes, I'm not being nice to the host, but I've complained for 2 years and no one seems to understand, adults do the purchasing , not kindergarden Kids. I would bet these cups are made in China, with all the lead in them.

I'd think advertising like this would be a purchase with purchase (maybe $5 as an add-on); a free give away for the most faithful buyers, or something like that.

I sure wouldn't buy them as a gift. If you gave someone one I'd think they would assume it was a freebie you got.

That's my honest take on it.

No, will not be purchasing. Overpriced and really not very attractive.

I like the idea of them being maybe a $5 add-on if you purchase $25 or more, but not on their own. And while many of us WON'T be buying them, you know his ladies will ensure that they are sold out. I can hear the calls now - they will have bought a set for each of their kids for Christmas and be so excited. I like having lots of mugs for my morning tea, but I will skip these.

Unfortunately, I’m a collector. I like to collect limited edition,unusual, or neat things that may be hard to find later on. I would display one in the kitchen, store the other, as I always do because I always buy two of anything I plan to collect; one to display, or use, and a new in the box “collectible”. In this case, one for pens in the kitchen next to the note pad.

I don't drink coffee coffee or tea, I only drink two things: water and various milks. I couldn’t tell you when I last drank from a mug since I don't gravitate towards the two I own.....I have a Keurig for the family to use.... I know without a shred of doubt that I won’t drink from them.

I’m trying to be more conscious of buying just to collect. I don’t have kids to inherit my junk but, maybe Goodwill could make a dime off of it at some point. 😂

Time to stock up those gift closets. If I recieved one of these as a gift, I would donate it to Goodwill. How many mugs does a person really need?

Nope!

@Sooner. Agree about gift with purchase or $5.00 add on. Personally I would not give as a gift but many probably see it differently. I could see people using in their work place, Co workers ask about it who never watched Q and possibly referring a new customer. Advertising that the purchaser pays for! There are a lot of things Q promotes as gifts that I would never consider giving.

I used to collect mugs. I have donated most of my collection to Goodwill. I did keep a few special mugs. My favorite is one my mother bought for me because I was a huge Dallas fan. This mug says "I Love to Hate J.R." It had a heart on one side of the phrase and a pitchfork on the other! ❤️ 😈

I stopped the collection madness many years ago. But, if I needed any more mugs, the ITKWD mugs look nice, large, and sturdy. Nice color selection too!

I'm tired of hearing, "this is our only order of the year" on repeat. This phrase has become overused on most presentations.

I can't imagine gifting those mugs. Most people I know don't even know what QVC is! They'd never "get" a "David" mug.
