No, nothing this year and shameful.

 

I believe QVC lost a lot of business due to their Scrooge like ways!

I was waiting to see if they would offer that this year, too.  No "bonus", no deal!  Smiley Indifferent

How is it "shameful," and how do you know they lost a lot of business?

 

Very few companies offer promotions such as this one.  In fact, did any other shoppig channel offer this special this year? Last year?  The year before?

This was the only deal Q offered their customers other then e-z pay. Now they have stopped the only good deal they had. Who cares about e-z pay. That saves no money. A lot of other companies offer free shipping deals, % off deals etc but not Q.

I know Applebee's & a few restaurants have buy $$$ gifts cards receive $$$ gift card free.


The OP says Q lost money this year by not having this deal because of all the posters that did not buy their gift cards this year because Q did not have the deal. I bought them last year but not this year.

They're not obligated to have the same deal every year.

No they never did offer it this year. VERY VERY disappointed and I certainly bought less because of it. In fact, I've not bought a thing for Christmas from QVC. I did get coupon codes from Evine and HSN several times over the past few months and did buy a few Christmas gifts with them. QVC certainly lost out on my money this Holiday season.

I was also looking for this deal, this year. 

 

Didn't get it, and did most of my Christmas shopping elsewhere...most through Amazon.  Lower prices, and no shipping costs.  2 day delivery.  What's not to like about that?

 

My QVC shipments take almost 2 weeks to get here! And if I have to send them back?  I pay, and wait a long time for the refund.  Sorry QVC...you just aren't keeping up with other retailers.

I do have some slippers to send back....that are so oversized...I don't think I should be on the hook to pay delivery costs both ways.  Will call CS on Monday and ask that I not be charged.

Oh gosh I know!! Honestly though, I didn't think it could get worse than QVC's shipping time but Evine has beaten them. And yes, Amazon got alot of my business for sure. I love Amazon! I've been shopping there since at least 2002- I can't believe it has been that long.

I have never seen QVC offer anything like that or coupons.  I must say that I do appreciate once in a while getting a 20% coupon from HSN and it does encourage to buy something with it when offered.
