I do not need....

cheekychachi — Fri, 03 Nov 2017 22:55:59 GMT

I am a working woman. I work on average 50 to 60 hours a week. I do not need lanterns, or mattresses, or vacuums, or a Dell laptop or the scrub daddy.

I need clothes. I need shoes. Occassionally, I need jewelry. Why is it though, that every morning this past week, I have been greeted by everything but clothes, and shoes and jewelry.

QVC, please stop pushing onto me items of convenience. I am interested in fashion. Please, can we get back to what matters from 6-8am to the working women of the world? Please? Otherwise it's CNBC or the Weather Channel for me.

Thank you.

@cheekychachi Has it occured to you that perhsps the rest of the world does not have the same wishes or needs as you? All last spring and summer, QVC had a record number of shows featuring clothing. It is now a couple of months before Christmas so, like all retailers, the Q will put the emphasis on Christmas gifts and decor while continuing to have clothing shows. With your working hours, you probably miss most of them.

As for the vacuum cleaners and mattresses; yes they can be a total bore....unless you happen to be in the market for one. They are the higher ticket items that pay the bills at the Q. They make the clothing and jewelry shows possible.

Are you aware that you can view the merchandise that has been shown recently by clicking on "items recently on air". By checking that daily you should never miss a show.

@cheekychachi

Lanterns and mattresses make great Holiday presents. Don't u love seeing Christmas Trees in the background - starting on October 1st - and will be there through December. Having Christmas trees on the set for 3 months should make most of us think about gift giving. I can't believe Dell is still in business - after years of complaints. Who doesn't want a Scrub Daddy - and now a Scrub Mommy. Is a Scrub Baby arriving soon?

Now that they are in full-on Christmas programming, they will have very few clothes shows. With the exception of when they have a clothing TSV. It is just the way Q does things.

Good grief, no one is "pushing" anything on you. Don't watch the stuff that bugs you or you aren't intersted in. You can also search QVC online for the items you DO want. Easy peasy.

Why do *some* "new members" start posting with a gripe? Sheesh.

Because it’s all about me. Fabulous Me! I don’t care what anyone else wants. I want QVC to cater to me.

Carmie — Sat, 04 Nov 2017 01:07:19 GMT

Maybe it’s just me, but when I need clothing or shoes, I go shopping at a store that has the items I am looking for,

QVC is not the only place to shop for clothing and since they don’t really carry much in my size that I want or need, I shop elsewhere.

I don’t have the time or money to pay to try on items that don’t fit and then have to send them back.

blackhole99 — Sat, 04 Nov 2017 01:11:08 GMT

@cheekychachiI so agree with you, I only want to see clothes, shoes, makeup and jewelry. Beauty IQ is my make up fix, but the Q needs to have QVC main for fashions only. Q2 could be for everything else.

I love it how people think in terms of only their needs and wants, as if they are the only person on the planet and QVC should cater their programming around her day.

Thank you.

"6-8am" in every time zone? That would involve a major part of QVC's broadcasting schedule in the early part of the day.

Sorry, OP. I guess they're catering to me! I may not like a lot of what they sell, but I'm sure others like the items that don't interest me. I like variety in programming.

Re: I do not need....

Caaareful Shopper — Sat, 04 Nov 2017 13:06:09 GMT

OP, you cannot be serious. Really? QVC should cater it’s programming not on sales metrics, but on you? I cannot even imagine writing that for public eyes, even if that was my all-about-me-wish.

I am also a working woman, averaging about 50 hours a week. I am also aware that there are tons of other places to buy fashion online. Even within the Q, you can look for fashion online without ever waiting for an on-air presentation.

I could never be a QVC moderator. The temptation to actually respond to some of these posts would be too much for me to keep in check.

Cheekychachi, are you aware that you can order anything from QVC almost every hour of the year?

Re: I do not need....

SeaMaiden — Sat, 04 Nov 2017 16:45:25 GMT

@cheekychachi I am retired( hallelujah!)

and do not need clothes or makeup or anything a working woman needs.... and I do not need all the other junk QVCthey sell either. That is why I rarely watch QVC.

Re: I do not need....

Q4u — Sat, 04 Nov 2017 20:37:09 GMT

This reminds me of a thread a long time ago that expressly was angry at all the retired people, who had all the time in the world to go grocery shopping, but instead chose to shop during the ONLY times the harried worker had to shop, and to stop it!

The writer only took into account her own conveniences and did not recognize that a lot of people at retirement age continue to work hard! They also take care of grandchildren full time for their own kids, or take care of elderly parents and do not have the luxury of choosing better times to shop just to get out of the way of the younger workers.

It's interesting how people think.

@KathyPet

I like ur attitude. All my life I thought about others - and not myself. I have learned, only recently, that "It's All About Me."
