-1 (or 249,999) lolSmiley Happy .... I came to my senses and cancelled my order. I decided to wait for reviews.  I am concerned the mop would be still too wet, after wringing it out.  I am trying so hard to be good this year with shopping too.

I also cancelled my order because when I first watched the presentation a host took off the mop head and she slide it completely through the handle of the mop.  That I didn't care for because all the germs and dirt would pass through the mop handle.  I noticed when Joy was there presenting that mop she only showed how to release the mop head but not fully take it off.  Also, I didn't want to be tied to that magazine subscription.  I don't regret cancelling my order.

I had this mop years ago and did not like it. I know this one is revised so maybe it is better. I use the Spin mop and love it so I won't be ordering this one. I took my mom to see her movie "JOY" on Thursday and it was very good!

Well, I fell for it, hook, line and sinker.  Hope I don't live to regret it.  If I remember, I'll review it since I bought 3 items.  I also got the "free subscription" but they aren't supposed to auto renew it.

I tuned in.  I was tempted.  BUT THEN I READ THE FINE PRINT.... no bucket.... No bucket... And I thought more  money for a bucket that matched.  And then I decided I did not need it anyway. I have a steam mop that I love.  Or I cam get down on my hands and knees and wash my floor... better exercise.  Man Very Happy

That is $5,000,000 in just mop sales - not including the bucket sales and replacement mop heads - not bad for a day's work!

 

She sold her company to HSN years ago so she likely receives a nice salary from HSN and perhaps a percentage of sales for her products.  It seems her children and/or their spouses are also employed by HSN. 

 

It appears to be a win-win situation for both Joy and HSN.  That is good business...if everyone is winning.

Joy may be a genius at inventing and marketing, and she has made millions from QVC and not HSN (good for her).  But I personally cannot stand her voice or her aggresive sales pitch, so I do not watch or listene to her.  It's like nails on a chalkboard to me.

I get frustrated with the fact that she starts so many sentences she never finishes and keeps interrupting herself to start in a new direction. She seems unable to focus her many thoughts. Perhaps that is the creative mind of an inventor, but I find it nearly impossible to listen to her and follow her presentations.
