we are big wine drinkers.....and we like our cocktails also. LOL my daughter has a wine and food blog AND is a member of the wine studio that meets online from across the country almost every week.

 

we like inexpensive and expensive wines from around the country and around the world. if the deal is right, i am willing to try them. i ordered the 12 bottle set.

 

it doesnt bother me at all that they are selling wine at all times of the day.


Sunshine,

I too ordered the 12 bottle set and got autodelivery. If we like it I will bring the 2nd case on a Family Vacation we have planned. I can make Sangria etc.  if we're not thrilled with them ...I will cancel the autodelivery. I thought it was a great price.


 

@DREAMON

yes, it was a great price1

i also used my Q card so i will be getting a $10 gift card back PLUS i ordered them a couple of days ago when qvc was at 12% rebates on ebates!

i am looking forward to trying it, especially the chardonnay.

Nothing is wrong with drinking some in the morning.

 

I love my Prosecco for breakfast!!!! Not every day though.

 

I am a huge wine fan. And my preference is French. Bordeaux is my love!!!!!

Oh for crying out loud.

 

People are now getting their knickers in a twist, because QVC is selling wine in the morning?

 

Really.

 

They just need to get over it.

 

 

 

Now I think that I have heard everything.


 

 

 

Are we now not allowed to buy pancake syrup in the evening?

@Noel7. Some liquor stores are the size of a warehouse. Wines are from every country in the world. Yours in Ca. must be the same. We are always trying wines from around the world. However, we try to keep it at a certain price point! Easy to get carried away.

Alcohol is sold in grocery stores, convenience stores, etc 24/7 except for Sunday mornings 2am to 8am here.  Why the state shut it down then is crazy since it can be purchased around the clock any other time.  

 

People buy it at all hours.  It doesn't mean they run home and get drunk....or even have one drink.  

 

Time to widen the view of the world.

It's not the time of day, it's the wine they're selling. I looked the guy up the last time he was on and wasn't impressed by his 'winemaker' credentials. I live in the middle of and surrounded by wine country, and the QVC Wine Club offerings are like "Who?" "What?" Meh.


 

 

Actually, I'm pretty sure this is about the time of day (to sell wine) since that's exactly what the OP referenced.
