@Othereeeen I don't know that I agree that what they are doing IS working. Yes, I buy hundreds of items a year. But, my purchases have also been reduced by the hundreds in the last few years. However, I will never buy a product, even if it is a "One Day Only" or a TSV while a host is on that I cannot watch. There are really only 3 or 4 I just cannot watch. When I purchase, and it's always online, I make sure a host is on that I can watch. If not, I will wait until a change of hosts or just not purchase.

I am pretty sure I am unique with this but after visiting the studio and seeing that a host gets credit for purchases made, as well as they receive bonuses for sales, I wait to purchase. There have been times I waited then either forgot or never had a chance to return online and missed out. I've never regretted it though since QVC has never offered something I just HAD to have. 

That is something I never knew!  So your saying if you buy something while being presented, that host gets credit for the sale?  If you wait till after the show they dont?  I wonder if that is why the producer is always giving them updates so the host knows how they are doing?

I have to aim higher. 16 items for me last year.

I only fit into that category on Amazon👏🏻!

I buy a lot and bought a lot during Covid,online, just not as much as I used to from QVC.

QVC, HSN got some of my dough, but Amazon, Walmart, Chewy adn E-bay got a lot more during Covid...it was SO convenient to have stuff dropped off at the doorstep!!!.

Chewy is by FAR the best performer on all counts.....variety, speed of delivery, excellent packaging ( and CLEAN!!!) you can always count on the boxes being new and clean if you need a box to store something in....!

Your post brought back fond memories!  I would watch QVC on Saturday nights at my married friend's house in the 90s.  We got a lot of great buys!  Looking back now, I can't believe we spent our Saturday nights like that 🤨.  But times move on, and she is now divorced and I am married.  I don't think my husband would "get" QVC!

Yes ! I'm in the best customer club and I have already met the guidelines for this year as well !

[Skyegirl21]

Oh yeah, I am!   I can't even guess how many things, gotta be over 50- But I usually buy sale items, and rarely pay full price...So maybe that takes me down a notch! 🤣🤣

I used to be, but now it looks like I am between 10 and 20.

If the prices what I am shopping for are similar, I will usually go with the Q b/c of their 30 day policy. The Easy Return and 30 day is a big advantage. 

I do this with cosmetics.

I was really amazed that people buy so much from QVC.  QVC is the very last place I shop at, mainly because I don't care for most of the clothes and find them extremely overpriced.  I do better elsewhere.
