So When did you become a QVC Shopper?

For me it was around 2009. I was off work recovering from carpal tunnel surgery. I was lying in bed channel surfing and came across QVC. I ended up purchasing a fancy curtain rod of some sort ( I no longer have it) I've been hooked ever sense !

So what's your story ?

Similar situation as yours: Recovering from surgery circa 1988

i guess is wasn't memorable for me. I have absolutely no idea as to when. Wish my memory was as good as so many others!

I started purchasing about twenty seven years now. I stopped shopping here for about three years, but started shopping again four years ago with a vengeance.

I'd say late 80's as I was a young mom with two small children. I used to like to watch it back then while they were napping but I couldn't afford to purchase anything at the time.

I used to and still do switch between both the Q and HSN.

@Goodie2shoes @Desertdi

OMG, same here! lol

I was sick in bed for more than a week with a very bad cold, not flu, but I had been running down my resistance, I guess.

Out of boredom I was channel surfing and found QVC. I was absolutely mesmerized by the Aeropilates demonstrations and Marjolean's detailed descriptions.

My pilates machine was my first purchase ... around 1998, I guess.

1980's sometime when a CZ pendant and ring caught my attention. I still have the pendent and it looks as good now as it did then. I think they used realy 14k gold back then which is probably why it still looks good. The ring was sterling silver and lost a stone or two out of it. Now when there is nothing on any of our 400 channels we default to QVC...depending on which host is on and how annoying it gets, lol.

Mid 1990's. JT had a Saturday morning show that I would watch in bed. First thing I bought was a travel bag which I wound up sending back. Second one was a breast cancer awareness pin that I still have and wear.

Watch and buy a LOT less than I used to!

It was after QVC purchased CVN for me also (whatevr year that was). I ordered quite a bit from CVN but didn't order much after QVC took over.

Jan 24, 1995, I had been wanting a gold herringbone chain. I was channel surfing and there it was on my screen. It was the TSV for Gold Day.

2021, when I was no longer working because of the virus and lockdown -

I discovered the world of QVC, never had any time before.

I started occasionally watching since the CVN days. First purchase was from QVC in the early 90s.

Around 1992 was watching a Joan Rivers jewelry show & made my first purchase which I returned.
