I've been shopping with QVC for about 40 years.

My first purchase was a Susan Graver peachskin skirt (which I probably wore a million times)

.My favorite buy was a Bolshoi "Nutcracker"  sweatshirt I bought back in the 90s. I've been wearing it every Christmas season since; it still looks great.

My mother was a QVC shopper as long as I can remember.  My first purchase was more than likely a gift for her. I do not purchase much for me.  My favorite personal item from QVC was an 18k gold cross and chain given to me for confirmation many years ago.

It is called ThawExpress and it is not electric.  Just place the food on it and whatever it is made of it will expedite thawing.

No listings for this on QVC or Ebay, so maybe you should keep it under lock and key when not in use.  LOL

I have been buying from QVC since 2003 or so....I have no idea what is my first purchase and I really don't have a favorite.

I don't know how fast that works, @Tinkrbl44, but I defrost meat on an aluminum cookie sheet.

It seems like forever that I have been shopping QVC. Most of my purchases were from outlet stores (Frazer, Lancaster, Drexel Hill/store closed now and Prices Corner Delaware/store closed now). 

I think my first off air purchase was a sterling silver ring with 2 heart shaped blue topaz stones from a Silver Style show. My favorite purchases are an 18k Tanzanite ring (3.13ct Tanzanite and .75 ct diamonds) and an elephant coin pendant (24k, surrounded by an18k white gold plate, an 18k heart shaped frame and a burnished diamond) that I bought for my Mom who loved elephants. Both items were featured on "Once in a Lifetime' jewelry shows and I found both of these at QVC outlet stores. 

As an aside, I was watching an old Stranger Things episode the other night and saw the Pooping Moose in one of the shots. (the show takes place in the 80s)

i watched for at least a year before I decided to buy anything.  Most likely my first purchase was a pair of D&C pants, QF top, a ring or Fenton glass.  The shows were entertaining and my knees hurt too much for me to enjoy walking around the malls.

I watched QVC for the first time in 1997 and my first purchase was made shortly thereafter.  It was some handbag or other.  I don't remember the brand but it started with an "M". 

After that I pretty much just bought jewelry and beauty items.  My favorite is a pair of 14k gold earrings, chubby huggy hoop style, nicely finished smooth inside. Also a pair of Beverly Hills Gold leverbacks. So different from the huge skinny hoops and shoulder dusters popular today.

Another fave from way back is a pretty 14k gold Morganite ring, ballerina style, surrounded with Rhodolite Garnets. I rarely wear these days usually opting for my 5 stone anniversary band on right hand.

I don't buy anything anymore.

Back then, it might have been Makowsky ... Bruce Makowsky.   He had handbag TSVs practically every week!
