Does anyone know how much of an employee discount the hosts receive for clothing? Do they ever get a clothing freebie?

It would be interesting to know.

They get employee discounts but as for how much I don't know and no they don't get a clothing freebie afaik. They may perhaps get to ""test out"" a fashion TSV for a few weeks before the official launch but I believe they either have to purchase it via their employee discount or return it.

Not long ago, I remember Alberti doing a fashion show early in the morning. He actually said he was given the product which he passed on to his mother.

Nice of him to share the wealth.

Shawn recently posted on her FB page a picture of her visit in NY to see friends. She showed them pouring through 'baskets of goodies' from QVC. It looked like beauty samples....they were many of them. Perhaps the hosts are given samples to try? If so, I have no problem with this. It is theirs to do with as they wish.

I'm not sure that I'd like to hear about it on a live broadcast though, as I have credit card in hand, lol!

Yes, they are given samples to try. I remember Sandra mentioning that she was given the sandals she was presenting, and she had worn them on her vacation, and they were comfortable. I've heard other hosts say they're given samples.

No surprise. I would expect them get all sorts of samples and freebies considering the job. Does not bother me at all.

I've heard if the host "uses" a cosmetic while presenting, it is hers.

Then why don't we see her wearing them? Like she takes us for a fool.

When I worked for a cable company, we received a 20% off QVC "associate" discount during Nov. and Dec. every year.

I imagine they receive something similar - plus samples to try.
