Go your local bakery, bakery section of hte grocery store or Costco/Sam's/BJs and get cookies.  They are cheaper, support local businesses and tastier!  OR and this is a big OR....you could bake some...just saying!

 

Oh yeah, don't forget your local Girl Scout Troop!  Support all of our troops!

I was recently sent Cheryls cookies from a business associate. I had never had them before but I had heard about them over the years and how wonderful they are. I not only think they were nothing great but these were down right gross IMO. I guess I have been lucky having great bakeries around me while growing up. If people think these are great or even good, they obviously haven't had a decent cookie. 

 

Even my husband who absolutely loves any kind of cookies, cakes or pies took one bite and spit it out. He wouldn't even swallow it. Now this is a man who will eat even a cake that is old and super dry. 

 

I guess I was just really surprised because over the years I have heard so many raves about them.

Re: CHERYL'S COOKIES

[ Edited ]

I must have been receiving a different product than all of you, because my Cheryl's Cookies have always been delicious.

 

I've been on A/D twice and have placed several individual orders over the years and they've always been fresh, moist, and delicious.  I would never describe them as gross, LOL.

Gave her two chances and got "bricks" both times.  Never again.  I can make my own nasty cookies for a fraction of the cost or make them wonderful for the same amount of $$.

I ordered them for the 1st time last Christmas, and they were delicious and a big hit.....Even my husband who is very picky loved them, maybe the quality has changed, but my experience was very good, I was even thinking of ordering them again this year!

I think Lofthouse Cookies at the supermarket are every bit as good as Cheryl's.  If you're buying cookies for yourself, rather than sending them as a gift, give Lofthouse a try.

      I have ordered Cheryl's cookies several times throughout the years.  I like them and so do friends/family.  I especially like them from the freezer with a hot cup of coffee!!

There are hundres -- if not thousands -- of bakeries online where one can easily purchase cookies (not to mention making them yourself), so why is it necessary for QVC to bring in another line?  Am I missing something? 


 

Yes you are. Choice is a good thing. Competition is a good thing. It makes people up their game and give better service, product etc.

You can order Davids Cookies from HSN. They always have great deals with free shipping. They just had a Today"s Special from Davids 148 assorted cookies for $39.00 and free shipping. They also sell good chocolate candy at good value. I go from QVC to HSN all the time. HSN always offer free shipping on their Todays Special regardless the size of the item. I like that.

I just recently ordered some of Chery's cookies to bring to a friend and even though it took a long time to get them delivered by Smart Post, they tasted fresh and my friend loved them.  I had kept a few of them for myself and besides being way too sweet for me, they were delicious.
