Wow - this is a first!

I searched all through the CIJ stuff and nothing appealed to me. NOTHING.

@151949- me either. Unless they add some new things overnight or throughout the month, which I imagine they will, nothing "spoke" to me.

@gidgetgh, I totally agree with you. I noticed a few items I have on my wish list were reduced a couple $$ or so from last week. I think the later CIJ shows will have new & different items. That's when I will be in trouble...!!

I don't even bother to look - and it has nothing to do with exactly what they are offering. I just can't remember the last time I bought anything anywhere to decorate for any holiday. I like what I have and too often don't even use all that.

and if it's "on sale" the Q makes it up on s/h!

Not like HSN where they send 20% off coupons (I got 3 this week😄), Free shipping & flex pays (ez pay) now that's a incentive to make me get in the holiday decor shopping mood & even if I didn't intend to!!!

I'm not seeing anything either.

Same old stuff, nothing appeals to me either and this is a first.

What really disappointed me was Valerie Parr Hill's Christmas wreaths. I buy one every year. This year she has a church (which is not suitable for me) and a cutsey one with a truck! Awful!!! Last year she had the elegant cardinals which was so beautiful (I did save the cardinal ornaments to use this year). Oh well, I guess more money in my pocket but I was so looking forward to see what new wreaths she would bring.

Me too - so far no purchases! Last year I bought a lot this first day and then found better items on the full weekend of CIJ. Just finishing off paying a lot of easy pays and feeling good!!

Pretty bad QVC powers that be couldn't give its customers a real TSV ....not overstock stuff from warehouse!

I bought several sets from clearance & as is.

HSN is getting my $$$ today updating my cookware with Curtis Stone pieces. Great prices, flex pay & free shipping!!!!

@lovesallanimals ~ You might want to check out lynchcreekwreaths.com ~ gorgeous, full, fresh wreaths (many priced less than what Valerie is offering). I ordered two with wooden bird plaques last year as well as two heart-shaped wreaths that lasted until well after Valentine's Day. The wreaths I ordered had beautiful ornaments and sprigs on them that I saved they were so nice. Shipping is free, too (it was last year anyway). I'm definitely ordering from them again this year. I was very pleased!

I did buy the vintage Christmas truck by Candle Impressions and the Hampton popcorn, and will probably buy the Poopouri. Usually my credit card is on fire by now.

missxmas — Sat, 01 Jul 2017 18:11:39 GMT

I was tempted by the same items @onliner. The popcorn sounded delicious. Valerie's black sleigh is also calling my name but I don't need it and it will come in a huge box that I will have to get rid of so I am restraining myself!

@Kitty Galore, I ordered the Lantern in black last night. I had a hard time deciding but felt the black would go better with my black Heritage lanterns. I think the black offers more of a silhouette appeal, too. I might still change my mind & get the red when I see it presented!

I promised myself to sort holiday decor and thin the herd. So nothing for me.
