Purchase power and getting the best price entails shopping around on the Internet, and in stores.
Yes we still love QVC but also love saving $ and getting specials, price reductions, and free shipping, because all of that saves $ too.
We also shop a lot from Bed Bath and Beyond because they have a great no questions asked return policy, with no expiration date on the return policy. If you keep your BBandB paid receipt and return the item you can get a refund back to your original method of payment, if you no longer have the original receipt they will take the item back, but no refund, instead they will offer an in store credit to use in their store.
Either way that is a win win situation for everyone, which is why BBand B does very well, and has a very loyal return customer base.
Amazon Prime is also another favorite which is so worth the yearly Amazon Prime Membership Subscription fee.
Many items we find are less expensive on Amazon, than on other Internet, and retail stores.
Also you can purchase Insurance for many electrical and large ticket price items, which not every store offers.
What we buy is a vast amount of various products yearly, and with the free Amazon Prime Member shipping it is definitely worth the yearly subscription cost.
We buy alot of gifts for hubbys large family, our neighbors, friends, and ourselves.
The shipping alone would be astronomical if we had to pay for all the shipping costs, for each item we have purchased, without being an Amazon Prime Member.
Also included with your Amazon Prime Membership is a host of other freebies from Amazon like great foods and paper products to buy in quantity, and their pantry storage loads up with only a $5.00 shipping fee....best to check current prices when using Amazon Panty to have shipped to your home.
Other items also included with Amazon Prime Membership is great entertainment, free movies, free TV series, free games, free Amazon music to download to you computer, or listen to in your free Amazon Music Library.
Another great freebie is the Free Amazon Video Library, to keep and replay all your Amazon purchased movies, and TV series.
Also you get Free cloud storage for your photographs.
You may also choose to buy, music and movie releases, and many can also be rented for a few dollars.
If you purchase an Amazon Kindle Fire you have a whole new enjoyable experience awaiting you with many freebies from Amazon too, including free customer help with your Kindle, free kindle books, free cloud storage of all your Kindle apps you can add or delete from that Amazon kindle listing, and we love our Kindle Fire devices and take them on the go, as well as also taking our IPADS. (For some things we prefer Kindle Fire, for others we prefer IPADS).
Also Amazon has the best customer service and Supervisors available to assist should you receive an item not as advertised/not receive the item/receive a damaged or defective item/ or have any problem at all.
Amazon Customer Service will take care of it to your personal Amazon Prime Member satisfaction.
Returns are really easy, and for many items Amazon will not ask for returns, but will offer a re-shipment of same item to you, or a complete refund back to your original method of payment .......(your choice).
Now if all companies could also offer all that Amazon does they too would have a very large volume clientele, but probably not be as fully equipped to offer everything Amazon can.
Best advice is it really is best to shop around for the best prices, and then make a very wise purchase decision.
