Jimmy Fallon shops the Q?

millieshops — Wed, 17 Dec 2014 07:06:11 GMT

Anyone else watch Jimmy's show and notice that his Christmas give-aways for the first two nights seem to be right from QVC's big vendors???

Monday night - BOSE Bluetooth

Tuesday night - Vitamix

Hope I remember to watch tomorrow to see if the run continues.

I'm not housebound. I know that. Just a funny thought.

Sorry you thought I was serious about where they'd actually come from.

To be totally serious, I'd think they were donated by the companies. What better publicity than to donate to the Tonight Show audience - and probably no co-incidence that the first night of the give-away, the Queen of give-aways was on the show!

I watch Fox 29 News everyday....and Mike (darn I can't remember his last name) talks about shopping on the Q. all the time....he purchases for himself and he has items sent to his two daughters who live in other states....I think its cute how he openly talks about watching and buying from the Q......

We'd probably be surprised by who really shops the Q.

I just thought it was pretty funny that the products posters here complain about so often are the very ones they chose for give-aways. With the popularity of Jimmy's show as well as its target age group, they've got to have a huge line-up of vendors wanting to get their names on the air. And what did they choose? QVC style. Not that I seriously thought they bought it from QVC.

I don't know... It's one thing to win one as a prize and listen to a few minute blurb about it... It's altogether something different to see a steady diet of multl-hundred dollar appliances constantly programmed to the near exclusion of much else...

I think this is all leading up to Lisa Robertson taking over as the host of The Tonight Show.

Just kidding . . . I just wanted to add to the facetiousness and sarcasm of it all . . .

Instead of QVC, it could've come from Macy's, Costco...lots of big box vendors carry those popular brands.

Don't you think it was probably his wife that bought the items?

Just remember, everyone, that I started this thread tongue firmly fixed in cheek.

I'd assume someone (not JF) is in charge of product placement for that show the same way as happens in movies and other TV shows. I'd think companies would be standing in line to have their products chosen - is there better publicity at a cheaper price? Probably not!

Rosie O'Donnell does too. At least she did back when QVC had crafting shows. Rosie is big into crafting and I remember her saying that she got a box from QVC and whoever was at her house visiting that day was ribbing her for shopping on TV.

I remember once while watching C Span live Senate debates, one of the Senators talked about all the Congressional spouses shopping with QVC and having packages by their front doors all the time! LOL, if it's good enough for Congress, it's good enough for me!
