Why is Christmas in July still going strong at the end of August?

Why is Christmas in July still going strong at the end of August? To answer my own question, it probably has to do with all the stock Q has that is moving slower than expected due to the virus slowing sales. If you have any other explanations, I'm listening.

@Mindy D My remembrance which could be wrong is that the Q does Christmas shows around the 25th/month through the end of the year.

@colleena @Oh great. I'm already bored to death by the lack of decent TV programming these past two months. Now I'll be bored with QVC programming too. How many months of holiday decor shows can  any viewer stand before they lose excitement for the products.

It seems some people need 7 months of Christmas. It started in June & is every month thru Dec.

The Christmas in July Sale event has ended. Prices have gone up and Countdown to Christmas shows have Featured Prices and QVC Prices.

For me at least triple the number of hours of fashion, shoes, accessories, beauty and related that dominate programming.

July is the start of their Christmas season, and they'll have Christmas shows from now until December 23, and has been that way for many, many, many years.

yeah, towards the end of  each month after Xmas in July they get back on the kick of showing holiday stuff.

 

Between the slow  processing, mail delivery and   programming my credit card has been a delight to  open  when  the bill  comes. LOL

Many of us are bored to death by all the programming except for the holiday shows.

Christmas  in July is over & now it's Countdown to Christmas...did you really think the Christmas shows were done? If you're asking about CIJ on Q2 & 3, those shows were previously aired & Q isn't  going to bother renaming them.
