VALERIE'S SNEAK PEEK 9/21

mousiegirl — Fri, 21 Sep 2018 15:15:52 GMT

Valerie Parr Hill added 84 new photos from September 20 to the album: Sept. 22-25 House to Home Sneak Peek.

Valerie brought a lot of new. For anyone interested in the five angels with gift bags, I have two colors and they are adorable.

Not everyone (including me) is involved with social media like FB and Twitter. Advised years ago to stay away - good advice. So why do vendors like Valerie put their informatioon there when they could display it on QVC's website and reach any of their customers who use the computer? I'd personally appreciate being able to click in and see her offerings, but I'm not going to a social media site to see thwm. Sorry Valerie, but you lose potential buyers when you exclude us non Social Media buffs.

@mousiegirl, thanks for posting the link; my hopes are that nothing will say "I have to have it", at least anything that has some sort of motor inside (like the kaleidoscope tree).

Thanks again; I'm off to take a look.

@Perkup - Social media certainly has its problems, but sites like Facebook are central communication hubs for most people nowadays. In case you are not aware of this, you do not need to have a Facebook account to check out Valerie's sneak peek—you can just click the link provided here and view what she has posted, visiting the page as you would any other site on the Internet.

@Perkup Because despite the pitfalls, there are still millions upon millions of people on FB and Instagram and those people share what they see and what they like. So Valerie and other retailers know the traffic on social media opens the door to potential new customers — $$$. Those dollars far outweigh the hazards that are mentioned in the news. They also far outweigh customers that click on QVC.com. It’s used for so much more than socializing, it’s a huge sales channel.

@Perkup

I do not and will not ever have a facebook acoount either. But you can view Valerie's pictures without an account. When the box pops up asking if you want to sign up just click the 'not now' button and you can then scroll through the pictures.

I'm not fooling my self that I have any privacy at all anymore but I do try not to exacerbate the problem!

Thank you for the link. I saw an item in the teaser ad which has been running; now I have an item number for it. Sweet!

I don't do any social media. And I recentley quit Facebook after way too many years of wasted time. Now I choose what websites, blogs, and chats I really want to participate in. Like this awesome place here! However, I have found that any social media site, be it FB, IG, Pinterest, etc., if a person, place, or thing is trying to sell something, it will be a public page and anyone can view it. It's a win-win situtation. No need to have an account just to look.

@Perkup I am not involved in facebook or any other social media, but I can still see Valerie's items on her facebook page, use the link.

@Perkup-

If you want, you can just type in the search bar Valerie parhill and click on her home facebook page when you see it.

You don't have to join facebook to see it.

But I agree, it would be nice to have it up on QVC as well as facebook.

All the hosts have public Facebook,Twitter and Instagram. Just google the name of any host and whichever of those you want to read. No one needs to have any of those social media accounts to view.

I finally got a chance to look through the whole album and was relieved to discover there's not a single item I'd want that I don't already have! But I will still be tuning in to enjoy the (hopfeully) peaceful, festive atmosphere of a good Valerie Christmas show.

I do not have facebook either or use any kind of social media either except to call people on my phone or see them in person. My cell phone is 10 years old and I have never texted. Don't even know how. I tried, like another poster said, to click on the link to see the photos Valerie had posted, but you do have to have a facebook account to see them. I saw about 6 or 8 pf the photos and a pop up told me I had to sign in to see them.

@fingerlakesny - When you see that pop-up box, you should also see an "X" in the corner like any standard dialog box or web browser screen—just click that to close the box and you will be able to continue browsing Valerie's page.

@fingerlakesny

The pop up doesn't tell you that you have to sign in. It may ask you to create an account but at the bottom you can click 'not now'. Then just click on the pictures and you can page through them. This doesn't mean you have an account.

PS - I do not even use a cell phone. I own one but I don't even know where it is right now. I still have a land line and do not have the ability to make or take calls when away from home. Yay!

@froggy I carry a cell phone when I am out in case of a flat tire or other emergency. My landline was out of order for a while, so thank goodness for the cell. I do most communication via email, but service people have to be able to call.

Oh, I forgot - I have to confess that I have Onstar in my car but it is just for emergencies. I don't think I have ever used it!

H215171 Glistening Santa or Snowman Figure:

http://images-p.qvc.com/is/image/h/71/h215171.008

I wonder if the snowman will have any plaid on it? Now THAT might be interesting.

I don't see anything I'm even the least bit excited about after looking at all of those pictures. More and more, I feel like I've seen it all before.

The only two things I plan to get from QVC soon are H212553 VPH green wooden lantern, and Harry's H215781 Homeworx basketweave ceramic pumpkin candle. I keep waiting for a deal like free shipping, as is, sale price, whatever, but nothing.
