Wine?

At 8 a.m.? I know things are grim, but is this a responsible answer?

I think it's ok to buy wine at any time of the day. I can't see how it is irresponsible to sell it in the morning.

I've been at the liquor store at 9:00 a.m. I'm not going straight home to start drinking it - usually :-)

People drink wine at church in the morning.

That's why you get prepared beforehand.

I hope everyone will take this for what it is- a very funny statement that totally lightened the day

Ok-here goes-

Once when all the fifth grade team was preparing for field day at our school, it was already a crazy zoo at 11am.

We met for a breather in the hall, and commented on one of the catastrophes already happening and the teacher who had been there the longest and who had the dryest funniest sense of humor said in her drawl-

"Well, its never too early to drink!"

It was so unexpected and something a respected fifth grade teacher wouldn't say, we just burst out laughing and boy did we need a good laugh about then!

I say bring it on! (in ahem moderation of course and don't drink and drive!)

Wine at 8:00 am is perfect for my shift guys that get off at 6 am! Some mornings I wish I could join them. LOL

Really? Now I have to worry about what time of day I'm buying things?

If so - someone has to teach me the rules - although I do believe Rhett's final words to Scarlett apply here.

it's the tsv. should they start selling it only after the noon hour because it's an alcoholic beverage?

It's not the time of day, it's the wine they're selling. I looked the guy up the last time he was on and wasn't impressed by his 'winemaker' credentials. I live in the middle of and surrounded by wine country, and the QVC Wine Club offerings are like "Who?" "What?" Meh.

we are big wine drinkers.....and we like our cocktails also. LOL my daughter has a wine and food blog AND is a member of the wine studio that meets online from across the country almost every week.

we like inexpensive and expensive wines from around the country and around the world. if the deal is right, i am willing to try them. i ordered the 12 bottle set.

it doesnt bother me at all that they are selling wine at all times of the day.

Confused, state regulations for certain areas allow for sales that early.....Lottery too.

Oh for crying out loud.

People are now getting their knickers in a twist, because QVC is selling wine in the morning?

Really.

They just need to get over it.

Now I think that I have heard everything.

Sunshine,

I too ordered the 12 bottle set and got autodelivery. If we like it I will bring the 2nd case on a Family Vacation we have planned. I can make Sangria etc. if we're not thrilled with them ...I will cancel the autodelivery. I thought it was a great price.

Honestly I believe some get offended as soon as the sun rises, it's hilarious imo.

Are people in the heartland or in the east able to buy fine wine from the CA wine country? Or from France?
