Another QVC junkie!

"According to her daughter, at one time the woman ranked No. 2 in deliveries from the Salt Lake area UPS."

"Maybe her mother liked talking to the encouraging operators at the 1-800 number for the QVC home shopping channel."

"Eventually, before the woman's family took the things away, the woman had gone through hundreds of thousands of dollars in inheritances, spending it on roasters and vacuum cleaners and computer printers and Marie Osmond dolls whose boxes she never opened."

"Some months ago the woman ordered $10,000 in merchandise from QVC."

"Her family tried a psychological intervention that didn't work and also contacted County Aging Services, the fire department and QVC."
