Re: When You Promise Yourself

@justashopper   Totally understand what you are saying & don't feel bad, it has happened to all of us.

 

  I remember when I was still working full time, had a long commute, helping my parents w/the health issues they were going through & turning on the Q & it was easy to just order what the host was selling as it was trendy, the current fashion, convenient, easy, reasonable price - yep, I bought what the host was selling.  Now, not so much but every so often I need my Q fix - it's okay.

Re: When You Promise Yourself

I seem to often break these kinds of promises, but I have decided not to buy jeans/slacks from QVC because I have trouble getting a good fit.  Tops are easier and my account shows that to be true.  I bought 2 more today.

Hi @kate2357 

 

Not to be an enabler or anything. LOL>  But. One lesson I learned is-- buy what I want the first time.  Any time I buy something similar but cheaper, I just end up wasting money.  The cheaper consolation prize rarely works for me.

Hi @sandy53 

 

I bought two tops from Kim Gravel on Saturday.  Lol.  

 

My post was mostly in jest. I don't think I need an intervention or anything.  I don't think anyway.  

 

Which tops did you get?

I try not to watch the Q or Hsn too much b/c when I do I spend my money on stuff I really don't need. When I do buy something then I use the PayPal option. That way my return shipping is refunded to me. All of my return shipping is refunded to me by PayPal but there is a limit. You can check it out ...search 

 

Return Shipping On Us PayPal

 

Follow the directions there to get started, it's free but you need a PP accoount.


@SilleeMee  - Maybe you should do a PSA on this return shipping option with all the complaints of having to pay shipping.

Oh, ita.  I just can't find the right gray jeans at any price point, that fit and don't have shading on thighs & tush.
