For all the beauty things I have purchased, that was not were I landed with this question!

I have actually used my Black and Decker 18v hand held vac almost every single day since it was purchased sooooo many years ago. I even bought a second one for the other end of the house! 

One of those things that, now, I could never be without!

I have quite a lot of jewelry that I still love and wear but I think my favorite purchase is the Food Saver. I use it so often. 

Another favorite is a 2 piece copper spinner that hangs from my deck overhang. I love the shape and enjoy watching it spin when the wind blows. I'm probably not describing it very well. It's not like the Plow and Hearth spinners It' more like a copper sculpture.I t's not a wind chime so it doesn't make any noise. That would drive me nuts. LOL

@SandySparkles Thanks so much for starting this great post!  My favorite QVC purchase was back in 1995 - I was a QVC customer for almost one year. At that time the famous fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg had an accessories line at QVC. It was at the same time her husband, Barry Diller, ran the company.  One of her items was a bohemian style beaded necklace. It had blue and green beads with goldtone accents. When I saw it on TV, I knew I had to buy it. It was beautiful then, and is still beautiful now - a testament to it's excellent quality.  A recent photo of my necklace is below, which I still wear today.

@kate2357 WOW! Your rebounder is STILL going strong; another QUALITY item sold here.❤ LInea's beloved line of clothing was timeless, and revered.😁 I have a few purchases and some of his BEAUTIFUL💝 costume jewelry that I am certain will out live me.😄 I purchased Bare Minerals in years past and was a bit skeptical at first, but after using it once I was hooked!! I LOVED❤ the way my makeup looked AND felt. I eventually moved on to different skincare and makeup, but can attest to it having performed per claims. 😊

THANK you SO much for caring to share your favorite purchases today!🤗

Leather jackets by Louis dell Olio.  Still love them all.  But not just his leather pieces, but the whisper knit outfits I still wear and always feel good in.

Logo boyfriend jeans.

Electronics

Shark wand vac.  Use it every day.

My best purchase has been Turbi twist. I use one every time I shower and have gifted my daughter and daughter in law with them. We all love them! @SandySparkles 

Edited to add: my Vitamix, also gifted my daughter and son with one. We all love it. I also purchased a trunk organizer from lock n lock for groceries and it's awesome. So it's the California innovations insulated grocery bags!

@SaveTheTurtles Welcome!🥰 EXCELLENT choices! You are the first to mention the Turbi twist so THANK you for that!❤ I recall it having been a popular item, and my dear SIL swore by them.😊 I am so happy you LOVE❤ your Vitamix too!🥰, and cannot imagine labor intensive baking without one. I also own an older trunk organizer, and some older insulated grocery bags from California Innovations that still look new! Great minds "purchase" alike.😂😂

THANK  you SO much for caring to share you wonderful purchases this evening!🤗

Wow this was a great post and so fun to read the answers. I had to really think!

Jewelry - I have worn the same diamonique cross in white gold for over 20 years. My fav earrings are a pair of oval hoop earrings, 18K, that I ordered from the catalog that the Q used to send out. Also I have lots of diamonique silver chains from Ripka that I wear with her pendants, mostly hearts. Don't really have a fav.

Lori Greiner's jewelry armoire!

Kitchen - Kitchen Aid Mixer and Lock n' Lock.

Clothes - I love the cotton cashmere and cotton slub tanks that LOGO had at the very beginning as well as some of her dresses. While I've eliminated items that were too long, too asymmetrical, etc., I still do do the tank system quite often. Actually I just bought 3 of her dresses on ebay!

Also have a couple boiled wool Christmas jackets from Quacker Factory, back when Jeanne Bice was there.

Many years ago I bought an Oreck vacuum. I still have it and my husband had it refurbished last year knowing how much I love it! It came out like new. However, at one time I have did have two. The second one was kept at a vacation home. He sold the house furnished and left the vacuum! He had to hear about that for a long time! Oreck vacuums are very light but very powerful and they're kind to hardwood floors. 
That's my favorite purchase but I've  really had so many. My 2nd career was in merchandise and I know this is a great thread for management to read. We're letting them know what we've loved! Nice topic!

Brighton Christmas bracelet.

Quacker factory clothes, especially a martini glass jacket and pieces that strike up a conversation.  I have a nutcracker sweater that always comes out during the holidays.  Many pieces that were cruise themed!  Love these old pieces.

@Neetgal2 Welcome!🥰 I do not remember the Brighton bracelets, but imagine yours is beautiful since it is your favorite!❤😊 I spoke of my tees by Quacker factory previously, but your post made me think of the irreplaceable, adored, cherished Jeanne Bice and how much she LOVED💝 her brand! Her indomitable spirit was ever present.😊 Though she may have been short in stature, she had a  presence as wide as the sea, and I miss her.❤❤

THANK you SO much for caring to share your favorite purchases this evening!🤗
