Re: I apologize in advance for those I offend butl....

@Junebug54It's okay not to like CIJ - but since it ruins the holiday for you, there's an easy solution.  You already know what it is.  It's what works for me. 

 

What I think would be offensive from either of us would be to expect QVC not to run CIJ as it seems to work well for many customers.   And CIJ isn't a QVC invention  -  some posters seem to think it is.  No way -  it's older than I am and I'm a bit older than Pearl Harbor.

I can understand both ends of the spectrum on CIJ. it's ok for a show or two but then it's enough for me. I bet the AC is cranked to the max to tolerate the lit fireplaces. The program guide is my friend.

No offense taken. I think it's grand that lots of QVC's customers enjoy the early and continuing holiday programs. But I don't take to the endless Christmas buying season myself.

 

Most years, I avoid stores from early November to early December, so I won't have to hear the music, see the decorations, etc until I'm actually ready to shop for gifts. (This year, I think I'll be grateul if I can visit stores safely in any condition, though!)

@Junebug54  There are CIJ people and non-CIJ people, and never the twain shall meet. If I chose to elaborate on the things I don't want to see on QVC, we would be here awhile.

Easy solution, don't watch and think of all the money you are saving!!  I agree with posters who say it is a pleasant diversion from the news.  It doesn't bother me at all.

I just don't watch, I've checked out the website, but the Christmas items aren't anything out of the ordinary.

I hate it & Hallmark is showing Christmas movies all day. People there are many Holidays before Christmas. So why don't we celebrate those. Dec is time enough for Christmas.
