Wow! 16 is a Crazy low number of Lunchtime Specials! I haven't checked them out in a couple weeks, but whenever I last did, there was a whole lot more. These few items aren't enough to even warrant a list lol.

Actually, it's currently only 13, and there's a dress that's shown twice since one ithe petite version.

Agreed! I thought it was just me who thought that they're nothing special, and the prices aren't great. I haven't purchased a lunchtime special in eons. They used to be great; not now.

I agree. I check every day and there is only 1 lousy page. This is the only place or time I order from qvc.

I've gotten some great deals and what's up!

I sure did. I made it a point to check out the specials and ordered many at great prices. But now it is only on for a 1 day special and the prices are not good at all. example: $24.00 QVC price on a lunchtime special for $18.99. That is no special. I noticed the change last Monday. They keep changing items everyday now. I really slowed down a lot on buying. The clothing prices are getting really high. The tops are in the $60 range. The food prices are very high for what you get. What is going on witih QVC????

The way they're 'changing rules' mid-stream, maybe they're gonna stop the LTS.

@Kathyfobo I'm glad you started this thread as I was saying the same thing! It's like I can't look away thinking I will miss something great I need/want... so I look and BAM! Nothing!

As one of the multiple QVC historians on this forum, this is how the lunchtime specials used to be years ago. A short list of limited quantity items. The difference compared to now is that the prices are not so special.

@Kathyfobo I certainly do agree. Unlike the historians here, I don't believe that the way something was done X years ago needs to set the standard for today.

The lunchtime specials are IMO mostly lame and the prices are not so special. Whereas up to the "change" I found something there every week or two and quite often an item from my wish list. Those days are over it seems. I am shopping less here with the help of QVC itself.

The majority of my purchases now are Lunchtime Specials and "As Is".

I can't fathom why this change was made; it's certainly going to cut back on my spending.

Maybe phasing them out altogether. Oh well.

Yes, the first thing I usually do each morning is check LTS. At this rate I really don't think it's even worth my time to click the button to get me to lunchtime specials. What a joke!

QVC constantly amazes me with the never ending changes they make. And most of those changes ultimately run off long time customers. As David says, this is extraordinary!

I've noticed that the offerings on the lunchtime specials are very small compared to what they used to be.

I agree! In addition to the meager number of items, the 'special' pricing isn't all that 'special'. I use to do a lot of Lunchtime Special purchases. I have dramatically cut back on my purchases. My husband is happy but I am not! LOL!
